0:00.0	Welcome to AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get supporting guidance through the chaos of parenting.
0:07.0	Here's your host, Child Therapist Natasha Daniels.
0:10.0	Well, hello there. I hope you are having an amazing day and welcome to another episode of
0:16.1	the AT Parenting Survival Podcast. Today I want to talk to you about why gut feelings are so important and how we teach our kids to not trust it.
0:28.6	It's so bizarre to me that we inadvertently teach our kids to not trust their gut feelings.
0:35.0	We shut down their gut instinct
0:37.0	and we do it in many ways all the time.

1:24.9	we're not registering it. So I think it's really good when parents sit down and
1:30.3	I haven't even done this with my kids but I'm going to I even tried this morning, but then my son I don't even know why he is so random so he wanted to talk about it was so weird, you know, mom, there was a guy yesterday and he needed
1:46.9	money for gas and he came up to us and he was looking for money for gas. And, you know, I don't know,
1:51.8	dad didn't give him any money for gas and do you think that he actually got home?
