Parenting is one of the most exciting and unique roles we encounter as adults.
As parents, we all want the best for our kids. The best schools, the best friends, and the best opportunities. But the fast-moving 21st-century world is changing so rapidly, that raising a child to be able to consider their own long-term best interests becoming more and more challenging.
The coaching approach shifts our perspective and gives us control over our emotional response in parenting. Although we can’t deny that temperament and other birth-wired predispositions significantly affect our children’s emotional profile, the way we respond to our kid’s emotions and how we, as parents, model our own emotion regulation, will play a vital role in our kid’s overall socialization and emotional intellect development.
Coaching is an aptitude way to develop people through unconditional acceptance, belief in the positive intent and ability to succeed. Coaching creates independence rather than dependence.
As parents, we can employ the power of the unconscious mind to give children positive messages about themselves and the world in general. Adopting a coaching approach in our everyday lives can also help us to be kinder to ourselves as parents.
But how does a parent take a coach approach? Obviously, one has to have the right communication skills. But which ones are they? And how should a parent perform these skills?
