[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love the analogy. We use Bert and Ernie to describe our mother-daughter dynamic (I'm a chaos muppet). I'd say that it never hurts to acknowledge that her feelings are real. So if she's feeling like the day was sucky, she does indeed feel like it was sucky even if it seems to you like it wasn't that bad. Ask her what she needs (a hug, a snack, alone time, etc), provide that, and step away unless she asks for more. That way she can process how she feels and reset. [/quote] Thank you, this sounds like what I need to do more of.[/quote]
