Parents want to offer their children a loving, secure childhood, filled with warmth, stability, and closeness.
But if your upbringing was difficult, dysfunctional or traumatic, it's hard to be the calm "Captain of the ship" when you get triggered by your child's misbehavior.

Join Dan Siegel and Susan Stiffelman for an in-depth exploration into how to heal your childhood wounds while offering your children loving, secure attachment.
