Summary
Dr. Lindsay Gibson's first book, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents, gave millions of people language for what happened to them growing up. Her new book flips the lens for the people who are now raising kids of their own and are quietly terrified of passing it all down. Whitney sits down with her to talk about what actually builds emotional maturity in a child, and what to do in the moments your own immaturity shows up. In this episode, you'll learn: Why the fear of becoming your own parents is often a sign you won't What emotional maturity actually looks like at different ages, from newborn to teenager Why ruling through fear works in the short term and costs you the relationship long term How to repair with your child in a way that actually changes the pattern instead of pseudo-apologizing Why you don't have to be the perfect source of everything for your kid Connect with Dr. Lindsay Gibson Get her new book, How to Raise an Emotionally Mature Child: https://amzn.to/4fbX135 [this is an affiliate link - as an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases at not additional cost to you.] Whitney Goodman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and the founder of Calling Home, a membership community that helps people navigate complex family dynamics and break harmful cycles.
