@becomingabeliever I’ve definitely been in therapy for years and am a therapist myself, which is why I’m so frustrated I cannot figure this out despite trying very hard!!!
I realized through these comments where I feel stuck is I feel like attachment parenting focuses on attuning to your child while they’re dysregulated and focusing on the connection between you two, whereas behaviorism emphasizes how that can reinforce the negative behavior. So now I feel like I shouldn’t or can’t attune to my kid , but then I worry if I don’t do that, my kid won’t feel safe or loved. So I’m not sure what to do.
