Q&A: My 5-year-old says she doesn't want a sibling but I want to have another baby. What do I say?

Beyond the Sessions is answering YOUR parenting questions! In this episode, Dr. Rebecca Hershberg, Dr. Emily Upshur, and I talk about...

- Translating the question: I don't want a sibling may actually just mean, "I miss you."

- Zooming back to assess the environmental factors that may be taxing your child, especially when there are a lot of transitions and changes going on.

- How to change the narrative in your young child's mind so they don't associate losing quality time with Mommy and Daddy to having more siblings.

- When to simply validate your child's feelings and when to know if it's time to try to make some changes.

- A script of exactly what you can say to help your child feel more contained and regulated in these moments.

- Why helping your child feel seen in the moment can foster their secure attachment, which may end up indirectly solving the problems you're experiencing.
