EP20 - How to Set Healthy Boundaries with Your Child

I AM MOM Parenting Podcast

In this episode, we speak about how to set healthy boundaries for yourself and your child in order to create an environment at home that fosters potential win-win scenarios for everyone. We speak on why boundaries are necessary, the benefits of setting boundaries, and give examples of how to set boundaries. A boundary is what allows you to show your child what you stand for, what you believe about yourself, and what you expect from them. It’s a way to help them understand what your capacity is in the relationship with them. It allows you to be your fullest self, while feeling safe to do so, and models the same for them.

Be sure to listen for:

· Why boundaries are important for parents to create

· The negative feelings that may come up when setting a boundary

· The dangers of authoritative parenting and permissive parenting

· What can happen when we don’t set boundaries

· How to set boundaries empathetically with age appropriate and relevant consequences, with examples

· How to set clear boundaries consistently

· The importance of allowing your child to explore the boundary

· Scenarios when boundary lines become blurry and questions to ask yourself when they do
