Aware Parenting, Connection and Feelings

Children often have unmet needs connection and choice that prevent them from cooperating says Attachment Play with Marion Rose Podcast. Sometimes the rough and tumbling games before bed gets kids to be more comfortable and connected with the parent because it gets out the stressed feelings through play and laughter.
Sometimes we have a feeling we can't stay present with because our parent could not be with us in them. Such as fear or sadness, our parent could have either tried to distract us from it, or explained why we shouldn't feel that way. So we need to stay present with them, Marion Rose writes in What do feelings and connection have to do with each other?
