conflict is differing needs

In this episode, Abbie introduces the month's theme of conflict in parenting and asks the following reflection questions:

1. Have you ever witnessed a family (parent and child, caregiver and child, siblings, two co-parents, extended families, etc.) engage in “healthy conflict” (a parent and child, siblings, extended family, caregivers, etc.)? What did that look like?

2. What would conflict need to look like in order for it not to feel “bad” or destructive for you?

3. What kind of stories do you hold about conflict? What kind of stories do you want your children to learn about conflict?
