Some of the most difficult storms to\u00a0weather are the ones involving family. When a family is faced with divorce and remarriage it can place a\u00a0tremendous burden and strain on the parent-child relationship. During these transitions children often\u00a0feel left behind or caught in the middle. Most children feel as though they have to choose, or worse that\u00a0it is their fault somehow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><strong>If you\u2019re noticing an increase in any of the following behaviors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Back-talking or arguing<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Everything becoming a struggle<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Fighting\/biting siblings or playmates<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Withdrawing or losing interest<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Frustration, angry tantrums or aggressiveness<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><span style=\"line-height: 21.81818199157715px\">It&#8217;s time to take action and do something different.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px\"><strong>How We Help<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">With the breakdown in the security they have always found in the family, or the challenges faced with\u00a0establishing their new role in a new family setting there is more uncertainty than many children are\u00a0equipped to handle without consistent parental guidance and encouragement. With the parent\u2019s time\u00a0consumed with their changing roles and additional responsibilities, finding even more time to devote to\u00a0all of these new needs quickly feels overwhelming. Add to this the challenge for the children to figure\u00a0out how this will work in two very different households instead of one\u2014and you have the ingredients\u00a0for trouble. If one of the parents is resorting to recruiting the children for fact finding on the other parent, you have the making for a very\u00a0disastrous\u00a0situation where the children are concerned. This one shift will take the emotional load they are already carrying as a result of the breakdown in the family and add massive amounts of confusion and self-blame to the mix that will only result in serious blows to their self-esteem. You will most likely begin to observe significant shifts in their behavior, attention span, degree of apathy and performance in school.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px\"><strong>What we Deliver!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><strong>Insight, training, coaching and tools that focus on cooperation instead of compliance to help children emerge from these experiences with a solid grasp on:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A Healthy Self-Image<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Self-reliance<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Empowerment<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Cooperation<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Wise decision-making<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sense of purpose<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><span style=\"font-size: medium\"><strong>Compliance methods of parenting work in the moment and usually work very quickly. The downside of compliance parenting is that it doesn&#8217;t afford the child the opportunity to learn and make decisions regarding their own\u00a0responsibility\u00a0for their current and future behavior. As adults, we do not appreciate it when we are told that we have to do something a certain way because someone in authority tells us so or\u00a0because\u00a0we&#8217;re told it is in our best interest. Neither do our children. They have the same basic needs that we do as adults. It only takes one parent who is willing to take on the responsibility for the children to make a huge difference. The child needs a person that they can rely on and trust. This reliance and trust is built by the way we interact with our children daily and especially after any major life setback or trauma, not simply because we are their parent. The skills, tools and awareness you will gain from working with us and us with you will provide your child with a solid, reliable foundation based on honesty and open expression. This foundation will make the difference between whether or not they get engaged with their life or they decide to quit and ride out whatever comes their way. It will be the difference between whether or not they believe that they can create the life that they desire, or whether they choose to simply not desire.<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<hr width=\"500\" \/>\n<p><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Welcome to Embracing the Storm. \u00a0 Helping parents embrace stability and support for themselves and their children as they face the storms of divorce, single-parenting and step-parenting. &nbsp; Our Mission To increase awareness and cooperation for individuals, families and businesses through effective coaching, training, public speaking and \u2026 <a class=\"continue-reading-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/\"> Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr; <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-13","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18,"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13\/revisions\/18"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ctacoaches.com\/embracingthestorm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
