Did You Know This About Your Child’s Brain?

By Cynthia Armstrong

Today I want to talk about something we may not have realized about our children. We realize but we're trying to avoid it. It is the fact that we mess them up. Sometimes, we think that if we've messed up our children, then we think that we need to feel bad. We need to get down on ourselves. But the truth is, all parents mess up their kids, even the best parents you've ever met. They have messed up their kid in some way because we don't even know that we're doing it. We need to get over all those feelings that stop us from helping our child because we've messed up.

Hi, my name is Cynthia Armstrong. I'm a general and special education teacher. I homeschool my own children for five years, and the things I talk about are those things that I have studied, researched, I've experienced, and I've applied. I have found those things that were of most benefit to me, my children and my students and I want to share with you.

I am talking about the most comfortable topic of how we've messed up our children. Here are some things that we didn't know we were doing. There's this fear that we've messed up our children that makes us feel bad and makes us not want to look at. We've all done it. Our parents did it. We are doing it. Every parent has done it. So if we just let go of all the feelings, all emotional blockage that has to do with that, then we can move forward.

If we learn how we've messed up our children. If we learn about our children's brain, about those interactions, about how we met and how we make those connections in our brain, how much more likely are we to be able to undo it? And to find something perhaps more beneficial?

We also gave a lot of good things to our kids. If we understand how our children's brains work, we might be able to identify individuals who might not have been the best. Back in the 80s, they thought that we had so many brain cells and they stopped creating them in your early 20s. Now, we know that our brain is constantly making and can give the right environment, and can continually make neurons throughout our whole life. We have neuroplasticity so our brain makes connections. It can also let go of those connections and make new connections. When do we understand how our brain does that? How are children making these connections and how those connections and the meaning that we give it create those emotions that reward our brain all of a sudden?

We can be more effective. If we've all messed up our children, if we all make mistakes on a daily basis. And we try to hide that. What do our children grow up believing? Mistakes are bad. They need to hide mistakes that they're not good enough. Why would we want that for ourselves? Because we certainly don't want that for our children. That's where they're learning it from. That's where they're getting it up from.I know this one was kind of general and kind of vague about how we do that, but we can help our children to disconnect patterns that we didn't want them to pick up from us and that we can help them to reconnect them, and that we can do that same thing for ourselves. Remember, children are great by their very natures and we have privilege and responsibility to raise them.
