[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tread lightly... I was very bothered by my DD expressing her upset/frustrations and I would respond to let her know that is unacceptable, remind her to be pleasant, or shut that down. DD went through a self-harm (cutting) stage in teen years and after reading up on cutting I really suspect my redirecting all negative emotion expression from her was a root cause. I like the PP’s outlook that home is a sanctuary for your child too, and a safe space to be with all their messy emotions. I wish I had articulated that outlook for my DD’s youth. [/quote] I fear I have entered the same territory with my daughter. What did you do or change that was most helpful? Are things better for her now? I think I’m just looking for some reassurance. Thank you. [/quote]
