Setting Boundaries

Hard week this week for so many. It’s so easy to say and so much more difficult in reality, but when your child is full of negativity and life feels like you are trudging uphill through glue... always go for positivity.

When I am positive to my kids, it feels good. Even if they continue to throw hate and anger my way, my boundaries of positivity remain (mostly) strong.

Today I watched a mother have this down to a T. Whilst her teen used violence and aggression against her, this SEND parent warrior rose high and stayed positive and calm. Setting boundaries but also being true to her fear and sadness.

It’s so easy to stand outside things and look inwards and suggest calm compassionate positivity, but it will at minimum help you to feel caring and kind when the world around you feels like it’s crumbling.
