You Need Me & I Need Space: Respectfully Parenting Children with Intense Connection Needs

Interwoven Connections is excited to host an exclusive upcoming webinar for our registered community members, including parents and caregivers, professionals, and prospective parents and caregivers.

Some children just seem to be born deep feelers. Other children experience early trauma or challenges that can cause lasting effects. Whether as a result of nature or nurture, when children have intense connection needs, they might be described as "clingy", "needy", "emotional", "overly talkative", as they set about trying to meet their own needs. Adults who are trying to parent from a positive paradigm might struggle to meet their child's needs without sacrificing their own mental health, or body boundaries. Occupational therapist Kelsie Olds shares theory as well as practical ways to empower parents to meet the needs of everyone in their family—themselves included.
