Jo Frost Instagram – Why is it so hard to say Sorry When our hearts deep down feel it? 💖 Most parents felt shamed because their behavior was made to feel attached to who they are as a person. Their own parent would say ‘You Are’ statements instead of ‘that or Your’ behavior was very or when you behave….. And it wasn’t just the words expressed it was the delivery, the energy of those words,the yelling or the controlled ‘disgust’ the silent treatment or the utter contempt to hold a grudge. Hence moving forward now parenting your own children, if you make a genuine mistake, you go straight back to your own childhood and that feeling of shame freezes you to a place of not moving forward productively as the capable ADULT, the loving PARENT. Parenting whilst healing or learning about your own childhood takes courage and most of all a love so profoundly beautiful you’re willing to keep moving forward, forging your own pathway and not ‘auto parenting’ for the sake of your children not having to be where you are currently. So parents may this message be the springboard for change ! feel the emotion, remind yourself you are NOT defined from your past behaviour, remember who YOU ARE , step into your adult self, apologize to your children, back it up with solid action and teach your children one of the biggest life lessons you can provide them earlier on in their lives. Note : For many families I help on my shows, this was a current reoccurring theme and it was the necessary adult healing needed, helping families with ‘off’ camera guidance many times as their story was not mine to tell unless I had their permission, integrity at all costs. #FamilyFirst.
