Wonderful conversation. I totally understand the friction with parenting the way the "culture" wants versus instinct. I parent from an "instinctive" manner and do my best to be authentic with my son (soon to be 7). I do slip up at times (i.e. lose my temper) when my resources are low but I will own up to my less than ideal behaviour and we learn together. What I find difficult is talking about my parenting style with other parents; they tend to roll their eyes at me or don't know how to engage in the conversation. So I tend to keep quiet. I love this stuff and I think if we all had a chance to reflect on our behaviours and "fessed up when we messed up", perhaps we'd have better interactions with others on a daily basis.
Just discovered this in 2021 Unbelievably good Helped me feel better as it's inline with stuff I've often believed in especially around responding to children. In the past I've been called a hippy," bad" for getting sucked in to my.kids needs, being a helicopter parent, being over protective etc. But I've always maintained, intuitive responses are how to parent!
Oh goodness, I needed this. I needed the verification that I’m trying to do better and now I have more tools to do that. This was healing, encouraging, and important. The repairing broken situations is vital for children.
I find, as a Grandparent, I naturally tend do these things and definitely reap the rewards. They behave much better for me, than their parents but I think it’s easy, as I have the time!
Awesome interview. Thank you for that. One quick point I wanted to make though. To say you understand someone you need more than just a psychological overview of that person. Check out Robert Sapolsky's lecture on human behavior. Keep it up!
you can paint on a pad, you can draw on a pad, you can read on a pad, you can write on them and express those daydreams in story and writing... it's not a pen and paper, but I am sorry that you can't see this

Refreshing!... and so much to apply beyond parenting..into our adult communication and self awareness. Some real gems!!! Thankyou
Gosh I love Philippa Perry! Thank you both for the conversation :-)

I could be feeling like a train just ran over me but I would go to my daughter at night if she was crying , circa 38:00
Ok

Great point. I worry about this level of purism. Is that a word. 😂
