Any parent will sooner or later turn out to be bad for the child. In particular, teenagers must necessarily become disillusioned with their parents in order to find them again. But how can an adult understand that he is coping? Anna Platonova will tell you the answer. A good enough parent. In psychology there is such a thing as a “good enough parent.” This is the kind of parent who meets the needs of the child. The baby needs to eat and sleep, so the mother who provides this, despite extreme fatigue, is already doing well. If you do not intentionally harm your child, you are already a good enough parent. Let's look at the main signs of a good enough parent: 1. Unconditional acceptance is the first sign of a good parent.

Does he talk about his feelings? And most importantly, what does the child hear in response? Here we move on to the next point.4. Talking about feelings. A very important part of parenting is working with feelings. Not devaluation, but the development of emotional and intelligence. In the future, this will help the child, firstly, understand what is happening to him. Secondly, do not be afraid of your feelings and their manifestations. Thirdly, know how to deal with them. But for this, of course, the parent himself needs to understand what is happening to him at this moment and what he himself is doing with his feelings? Does he talk about them and how?5.
