Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja Megghan Thompson

I was recently interviewed by Miriam Fernández, Co-founder & Co-director

Nirakara Mindfulness Institute, located in Spain. 

I had a lot of fun exploring The Science of Highly Sensitive Children ("La ciencia de los niños altamente sensibles").

We shed light on the history behind the study of sensitivity and provide valuable insights on how to support and nurture these extraordinary children.

Please note that while the interview is spoken in English, the video has been transcribed in Spanish, ensuring that language will not be a barrier to accessing this valuable information.

I encourage you to listen!

Let's be honest for a moment, shall we?
As a parent, you dream of your child’s success, their happiness, and a future filled with endless possibilities.
Yet, if your kid is struggling with test anxiety, I bet you wonder how long it will take to get your kid to stop putting so much pressure on themselves.
The knot in your stomach as you watch your child crumble under the weight of their worries, 
Their confidence shattered, 
Their potential obscured by the dark clouds of doubt doesn’t help, does it?

Have you ever stopped to consider why time-outs might be ineffective?

 

I get that your kid’s pediatrician, therapist or school counselor probably recommended this tactic, or maybe you remember it “working” for you as a kid… 

 

But let’s face it– time-outs just don’t work for your sensitive kid. 

 

Why?

 

Because it is an outdated practice that is simply not based in brain science AT ALL.

 

With all the noise out there on parenting, I totally get that you may have felt like you can rely on a basic old school tactic that wasn’t as harmful as spanking.. 

 

And, time-outs expect a level of self-control that isn’t effective.

Picture yourself in a busy classroom surrounded by 24 other children. 

 

The teacher just finished an engaging Science lesson, but you found yourself missing out on half of it due to the constant distraction of your neighbor's hushed whispers.

 

This scenario represents just a glimpse into the daily experiences of highly sensitive children in the school environment.

If your kid is regularly pouting or freaking out during sports, and you find yourself wondering if it’s worth it, tune in.
Do you feel like you're walking on eggshells, never knowing what will trigger the next emotional outburst, embarrassed that this is now happening in public?
You're not alone. Many parents of highly sensitive children struggle with the same challenges.

You love your sensitive child with all your heart. 

 

But the daily tidal wave of tears, tantrums, and meltdowns leaves you feeling drained and defeated. 

 

No matter how patiently you respond, your child shuts down at the smallest frustration. 

 

You want to help them thrive, but don't know where to start.

 

This is not for lack of trying that you’re locked in a daily battle of wills with a child who seems wired to overreact. 

 

The judgmental glares, the well-meaning but useless advice from others, the isolation you feel - it cuts deep.
