    Childrens Attachment Needs

    We take a deep dive into the science of attachment, how children are meant to connect with their parents and carers. We look at the hierarchy of attachment and its development, as defined by Dr Neufeld. We touch on how children can get stuck in behaviour patterns when they are not deeply attached and how these can become personality traits. This episode forms the foundation of our next one where we explore the practical applications of this science. The LEAD approach is a way of understanding and supporting children from a relational perspective that draws on a variety of research in how brains develop and what they need to develop emotional maturity, and how that applies in our culture. Find more about LEAD at www.leadapproach.com and book a free chat with Laura to explore how you can help your child or teen develop deeper roots of attachment and improve their Social and Emotional well-being. Laura Newman is a registered Speech and Language Therapist specialising in Child and Adolescent Mental Health. She supports families internationally with her trauma and attachment lens, helping parents rekindle their joy in parenting and transform childrens challenging behaviours into fulfilling connections.

Join us as we lay out the intention for our next 8 episodes focussed on each pillar of the approach:  Living, Emotion, Attachment and Development.  ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To fix or not to fix their behaviours'.

    Science meets Faith

    Following our last episode, we go deeper into our values and beliefs. Our scientific understanding of attachment walks hand in hand with our faith in Nature or Christianity. In this sense Nature or G-d can act as a caring lead in our lives and provide us with the Rest we need to be our kids 'best bet'. -------------------------------------------------------------------- To fix or not to fix their behaviours'.

    Life brings stress for parents but how do we safeguard our kids from this? What can we control in uncontrollable situations?

    What's changed: instinct, culture or something else?

    What has changed in our parenting practices? Gordon Neufeld identifies 'peer orientation' as a key phenomenon.  In the LEAD approach we identify the 'Caring LEAD' and our children's 'Attention to the Connection' as our primary focus, our 'One Thing'.
