✨ Become a balanced parent in 3 months or less - guaranteed!! https://drlindsayemmerson.com/workshop-pod In this episode, I'll expose the hidden dangers of authoritarian parenting that most parents never see coming, and the biggest risk isn't what you think. While you may be using strict "because I said so" methods to raise a respectful, successful child who can handle the real world, this approach often achieves the exact opposite of what you're hoping for. I'll break down five critical risks of authoritarian parenting, including what happens to these "perfect" kids when they become adults that will completely change how you think about discipline and control. The biggest risk isn't rebellion or acting out - it's something far more devastating and often permanent that destroys the most important thing in your family. New to my podcast? I’m Dr. Lindsay Emmerson, a clinical psychologist and Mom of 4, and I help parents find that sweet spot between support and structure that psychology research tells us is best for families now and best for our kids in the future. ------------------------------------------- Let's connect!

10 Subtle Signs Of ADHD Most Parents Miss
✨ Want to become a confident parent in 12 weeks or less? Start here: https://drlindsayemmerson.com/workshop-pod In this episode, I'll walk you through 10 subtle early signs of ADHD that you can identify in children aged 6 months to 5 years - including a specific behavior during bedtime stories that most parents and even some pediatricians completely miss. As a clinical psychologist who works with families daily, I'll show you exactly how to check for each sign at home, because recognizing these early indicators can be transformative for your child's academic success, relationships, and your family's overall well-being. Keep in mind that potting one or two (or even more) of these signs does not necessarily mean your child has ADHD. This video serves to facilitate seeking guidance from your child’s pediatrician or another health professional if you have concerns about your child’s behavior. It is meant to be an at-home diagnostic tool. Be sure to check out fellow creator, Emma Hubbard’s channel. It’s truly fabulous.
