Help Your Child Bounce Back
Kids don’t need to be “tough.” They need simple tools that build an inner voice: I can handle this. I can try again.
In this episode, Dr. Cathryn shares quick, doable ways to grow resilience in everyday moments—no shaming, no lectures.
-
Why mistakes are teachers (and how to respond in the moment)
-
How to praise effort so kids keep trying
-
Small, real responsibilities that build capability
-
A parent mindset that supports bounce-back without push or pressure
Simple scripts you can use today:
-
“Oops, it spilled—good thing we know how to clean it up together.”
-
“You kept trying until it worked. That’s persistence.”
-
Offer one real job: carry napkins, match socks, pour the dog’s kibble.
