Thank you so much for sharing your powerful journey through parenting at such a challenging time. Your honesty in struggles and the importance of the connection and repair in relationships were very inspiring. It's a deep reminder that misattunement is merely a natural part of parenting experience, and what really counts is how we react and repair those moments.

Kudos to you for trying out the principles of Nonviolent Communication to foster understanding and empathy with your children. I appreciate the practical examples that really beautifully illustrate how vulnerability can strengthen bonds and create space for open dialogue. Wishing you continued strength and clarity on this journey—your insights will undoubtedly leave a chord within many parents navigating similar challenges!
