Parenting Reflections: How I Stopped Asking "What’s Wrong?"—& Started Creating Safe, Low-Pressure Moments for Real Conversations With My Sensitive Child
Manage episode 471328548 series 3316661
Sometimes, the best conversations with our kids happen when we’re not asking direct questions—when we create space for them to open up on their own terms. Recently, I found the perfect low-pressure moment with my son, and what he shared with me was something I never would’ve gotten from a sit-down heart-to-heart.
In this episode, I’m sharing how I’ve learned to stop pushing for answers and instead make space for my sensitive kid to talk when he’s ready. I’ll walk you through what this looked like for us, how I practiced active listening (even when I wanted to jump in!), and why this shift has made our connection stronger than ever.
If your child shuts down when you ask, “What’s wrong?” or struggles to share their feelings, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about how to create moments where your child wants to open up—without pressure, expectations, or an agenda. Just an open, safe space to talk.
