Ep - 48 What to Do When Your Daughter’s Trying Too Hard to Control the Outcome
Description
Hey parents, have you ever watched your daughter tie herself in knots in order to clear up a misunderstanding or fix messy friend drama?
Maybe she’s bending over backwards to repair a friendship that’s gone sideways, rewriting her texts a dozen times before hitting send – or the one thing I hear often – taking the blame for something she didn’t do just to restore a sense of peace and stability.
Even though her attempts to control the situation may feel proactive, that approach is likely keeping your daughter in fight or flight mode.
We’re going to change that today by offering your daughter an approach that’ll bring her the peace and stability she needs – and deserves.
Welcome back to the Cultivating Resilient Teens podcast.
I’m your host, Shawna Warner, and it’s my mission to help you empower your teenage daughter with confidence, integrity, and resilience for all her adventures in life.
Today’s episode kicks off a new mini-series called “From Chaos to Clarity” based off the 5 Simple Steps from Chaos to Clarity that we introduced in the previous episode Ep – 47 How to Guide Your Daughter Through Misunderstandings and Messy Friend Drama.
We’re starting with Step One: Reflecting on what ways your teenage daughter might be trying to control the outcome.
