Speaker: Dr. Dan Siegel Source: Childhood Lies Making Us Feel Lost & Empty - How To Raise Mentally Resilient Children with Dan Siegel | Dr. Rangan Chatterjee Here, Dr. Siegel shares an interesting perspective on safety. In most situations, when I think about safety, I think about physical safety. As we all know, kids, particularly young ones, can get themselves into all kinds of trouble if we're not looking out for them. Here, Dr. Siegel expands on this idea of safety to an emotional and psychological level. With past traumas and issues constantly bubbling up in parents, it can be hard to avoid some of these pitfalls shared in this clip. But it's so important for our kids that we create a safe space for them to learn, make mistakes, and grow. This is yet another reminder of how important it is that we take care of ourselves and get the help we need if we want to show up as our best self for our children.
