Grateful 🙏!
Thank you for this approach.
We can learn so much from children, particularly our own children, if only we allow ourselves.
I absolutely loved this episode. Dan Siegel only needs to “show up” on a video to have teaching power! I learnt a lot and this talk also confirmed a lot for me. I live in Melbourne, Australia and this is one of those rare opportunities where I felt someone’s presence, someone on video from so many miles away…
Dan mentioned parentification. I wrote an article on parentification entitled: “Parentification: A License to Kill Childhood”. If people are interested, they just need to Google my name.
Thanks so much Dan Siegel!

At one point, Dan mentioned “parentification”. I did some research entitled: “Lives unseen: unacknowledged trauma of non-disordered, competent Adult Children Of Parents with a Severe Mental Illness”. My work led me to being invited to write some short articles on trauma and grief for mental health practitioners which I then freely offer to the general public. One of those articles was on parentification entitled: “Parentification: A License to Kill Childhood”. If people are interested in these resources, they just need to Google my name.
I really enjoyed this segment. Dan Siegel, thank you so much… Suzette Misrachi

Apparently, my research is the only type that has addressed this specific population group. The youngest person who’s read it was 16. But I don’t recommend that anyone reads my research, unless they are in their mid-20s and have adequate support.

Thank you for that very helpful and interesting talk. I’ve learned yet again
Thank you so much for the insite. Very interesting to day the least. I do plan on purchasing the book. God Bless you.
I loved the insightful wisdom that was shared through personal stories. The name it tame it which adds validation and establishes emotional intelligence and opportunities for the growth of compassion. Parenting is a challenge but being present is what it’s all about , it’s part and parcel of being responsible and love means providing for unconditionally. Loved the realness of Messy relationship; and how things can get better when we address them. I left feeling inspired 😉
Thanks Dr Dan
Following Dr.Seigel’s work for the past 15 years. Great to hear him own up to his flub, and know that it’s OK to repair & restore the relationship. Thank You!!

Thank you both, loved the talk and the crepe story really stands out. Question, though – while the crepe escapade was happening, is it wrong for a parent to want to teach sharing and manners to the teenager? Thank you
Thx so much Dan. You are a great, great communicator. You’re one of my gurus. Gaynor (London UK )
Love the crepe story. Enjoyed the video a lot.

Thankful for helpful tips on being a safe place by compassionate responses to kids . Also really enjoyed the story example .
Dr. Dan Siegel always fantastically great!
My takeaway was to heal our past to be fully present to our kids. Love Dan Seagal and thanks for this informative talk.
Truly, it is Neve r too late to have a happy (safe, seen, soothed, secure, sensible) childhood. Thanks, Dr. Dan.
Rita Cohen from NJ LOVED this video. All of it, especially the crepe story.
Love the “crepe” story! Such a profound lesson in mindful living and parenting! Love Dr. Dan’s work!
Beautiful! Thank you so much for this interview. Such a warm, personable and practical way of sharing some scientific information about the parent-child attachment and how parents can make it work using mindfulness.
Ruth from New Jersey Thank you this information was so helpful to me.
