| 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. |
| 0:11.0 | Hello there, and welcome to the AT parenting survival podcast. I hope you're having a fantastic day. I'm going to be talking all about childhood today. |
| 0:21.0 | So brace yourselves, depending on what that means for you. I have |
| 0:26.2 | found that as a child therapist I have sat on the opposite end of a couch for almost two decades now and I have noticed and observed time and time again |
| 0:39.2 | that parents ultimately start talking about their own childhood and how they were |
| 0:43.3 | parented and how it influences how they're parenting their anxious child. |
| 0:47.6 | And I have found that fascinating and I've seen that in my own parenting as well and I think that if you're human and you had a childhood |
| 0:57.1 | that inevitably your childhood is going to influence your parenting and I think it's even more so when you have an anxious child, |
| 1:06.4 | depending on your own history with your own anxiety or having relatives who have their own anxiety, |
| 1:13.8 | that stuff influences us, |

| 1:17.1 | or whether we've even thought about it or not. |
| 1:19.9 | And I want to spend some time today talking about that because I think it's so important for us to not just be a victim to this influence whether we are |
| 1:31.4 | influenced in a negative way or a good way, but how do we take that regardless of whether it's |
| 1:36.7 | positive or negative or in between and use that with intention in our parenting because I have seen where there's not a lot of awareness of how the childhood plays into the parenting and it's actually it's becoming a problem and a barrier to effective parenting |
| 1:55.8 | especially parenting an anxious child and I've seen where it's really good but |
| 2:00.3 | it could be even better if there was some awareness. So I want to talk about how our child influences us |
| 2:05.6 | and especially with anxious kids and kids with OCD as well |
| 2:09.0 | so that you can, you know, maybe just spend 30, 40 minutes thinking about this, and really doesn't take |
| 2:15.0 | much to really just start to connect the dots and say, what did I like about my childhood? |
| 2:19.4 | What did I not like about my childhood? |
