Perspective on Being the Youngest: Comparison, Checking In & Identity The Good Mom Podcast

    • Parenting

In this episode my third daughter joins the podcast to talk about her perspective growing up as the youngest in our family.  She shares a topic that has recently come up for her with her therapist around the topic of comparison, and some of the advantages and disadvantages of being the youngest. We also talk about the importance of checking in with each sibling and honoring their experiences and identity as an individual. We wrap up the episode talking about the unintended impact we can have on our kids when our "bad mom" self-assessments slip out.  If you find this episode helpful as a mom, please share with a friend, rate, or review.  Thank you!
