Your environment = self regulation

It has been some times since I've posted.

Yesterday I and Daseta attended a wonderful event in the South Bronx. The group had an opportunity to discuss how to best help the community become more healthy and vibrant (looking at all angles from birth to career OR the other phrase twinkle to wrinkle). When you as a parent know opportunities exist you view the world differently and in turn you treat people different. I mention this because your infant or toddler falls into the category of "teat people differently". Rather than taking the day to day stress into your home you will provide a calm, loving and nurturing environment.

Please don't misunderstand me, I am not implying every parent, however I am sure you may know someone like that who needs some assistance with learning how to leave the baggage at the door when they cross the threshold of their home.

Your infant or toddler may not be able to articulate certain things but they pick up on your vibes, if you are tense they know and react. If you are upset they know. May of these emotions are due to your environment (work, home, relationship etc.)

The ability to adjust your role is a great skill to teach her, also known as role playing OR the technical term, self regulation. You can't behave the same way in every situation. In one of Shakespeare's sonnets he said, "All the world's a stage and we are merely actors in it."
