Summary
"Who we are and how we engage with the world are much stronger predictors of how our children will do than what we know about parenting." - Brene Brown
The emotions of young people can be overwhelming to us, but we have to realize that they are overwhelming to them as well! How can parents help children to regulate their emotions in a healthy way? Not every emotion needs discipline, sometimes kids need understanding and empathy to assist them in learning how to move through their own feelings. In this podcast, we give some practical steps for parents to help their child to recognize, express, and get in control of their strong emotions. This is an issue that can be tough for parents, especially if they have never learned this skill themselves, but it is essential for the well-being of every child.

| 0:45.9 | Holy Week. Yeah. That's true. That's what's important is that we have, we have to, we're |
| 0:51.3 | celebrating for the full week before Easter and really the full week after Easter. |
| 0:55.6 | There's a lot to prepare for. |
| 0:57.1 | And what's amazing for us as Catholics, |
| 1:01.4 | and actually other Christian denominations do this as well, |
| 1:05.6 | is that we, unlike the secular world, |
| 1:08.9 | we elevate, obviously, Easter is higher than any other celebration |
| 1:13.0 | in the year. I feel like the world just celebrates Easter as like, oh, it's the beginning of spring, |
| 1:16.1 | you know, and it's like, and, and, you know, hey, that's fine. Maybe they haven't completely |
| 1:20.6 | outside of the Easter bunny and Easter eggs, they really haven't taken over this holiday. So we can |
