There’s a version of your kid that used to climb into your lap and tell you every single thing about their day. And now you’re lucky if you get a fine or a door that doesn’t slam.

That shift is brutal. But that silence doesn’t mean they’ve stopped needing you. It means they’re learning how to hold things on their own for the first time and they’re not great at it yet. They still need to know you’re on the other side of that door not going anywhere.

I’m a child psychiatrist and a mom. I see this every single day. The parents who stay close through the silence are the ones their kids come back to.

If this hit you save it for later and follow for more. This is a community of parents in the thick of it and you belong here.
