Podcasts about Child

Children are a gift from God. Children have integrity and rights. With these key principles in mind, Fr. Mike reviews the Catechism's teachings about marriage, family, child bearing, sterility, and adoption. Because “a child is not something owed to one but is a gift”, we must protect the dignity of the child at the forefront of all decisions. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2373-2379. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/ciy Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

In this episode (originally aired on 5/8/24), I sit down with clinical psychologist, Dr. Jaclyn Nofech-Mozes, to discuss all things parent-child attachment, why we all have the tools to attain secure attachment, and why we can't be perfect parents. Jaclyn explains the four attachment styles, the primary components of secure attachment, and what “rupture and repair” means. She also shares why it's essential to know your “shark music” as a parent, whether sleep training, breastfeeding, and daycare/nannies affect attachment, and how child attachment changes with age. Finally, she discusses fostering secure attachment with your child as the non-birthing parent, the impact of maternal mental health on attachment, and how we can initiate repair if there has been a rupture.Key Takeaway / Points:Dr. Nofech-Mozes' background as a clinical psychologistWhat is parent-infant attachment?On the four attachment stylesWhy we don't need to be the perfect parentThe primary components of secure attachmentOn “rupture and repair”On recognizing your “shark music”Whether sleep training, breast feeding, and daycare/nannies affect attachmentHow child attachment changes with ageHow you can develop a secure attachment with your child if you had an insecure attachment with a parent growing upOn fostering attachment with the non-birthing partnerWhy some mothers feel that “instant bond” and others don'tOn the impact of maternal mental health on attachmentAdvice for how to initiate repairWatch this episode on YouTube HEREDr. Jaclyn Nofech-Mozes practice: OrKid PyschologyFollow me:Instagram: @cameronoaksrogersSubstack: Fill Your CupWebsite: cameronoaksrogers.comTikTok: @cameronoaksrogersYoutube: Cameron Rogers

Instead it offers a glimpse into the religious life of the atrium, a specially prepared place for children to live out their silent request: “Help me come closer to God by myself.” Here we can see the child's spiritual capabilities and perhaps even find in our own souls the child long burdened with religious information. This book serves as a companion to the second volume, The Religious Potential of the Child 6 to 12 Years Old. The desire to have this essential text available in audio has been a long-held goal for many.

What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?"Learning is struggle, and kids need to get comfortable struggling with learning."  That's according to Jenny Anderson, who spends much of her time writing about what is happening at the frontline of parenting, education and AI. She explains that the big problem for educators and parents who want the best for their kids is that Silicon Valley is trying to take away as much of the struggle as possible. "The F word in Silicon Valley is friction. They want to get rid of friction, right?" AI is now sweeping across every platform we use and for us parents, who felt blindsided by the introduction of smartphones, this is yet another challenge where we're navigating the frontline of something we don't fully understand. In this interview Jenny gives us some excellent advice on how to navigate the latest challenge we've been handed, in a way that doesn't make life much harder for us and ensures our kids get the best rather than the worst out of this new technology. Jenny Anderson: https://www.jennywestanderson.org/https://substack.com/@jennywestaTeenagers Untangled Substack:teenagersuntangled.substack.comSupport the showPlease hit the follow button if you like the podcast, and share it with anyone who might benefit.

With special guest: Dr Will Davies… in conversation with Bill Kable Will Davies has been on the program before, bringing us inside stories from The Great War. Today we get to discuss Will’s new book Secret and Special. We hear about a boys’ own adventure story that started at a beautiful part of Sydney and which took our adventurers on a dangerous trip to Singapore harbour. They were on a night mission to put limpet mines on some ships in port. The unsuspecting Japanese occupiers of Singapore never knew what hit them. The difference from most adventure stories is that this is all true and draws on the meticulous research of Dr Davies that we have come to expect. Podcast (mp3)

She explains histamine confusion, kid-friendly protein targets, parasympathetic ‘readiness' at mealtimes, and offers practical breakfasts, lunches, and snacks that actually promote healing.   Ali Miller, RD Website: www.alimillerrd.com, www.naturallynourishedrd.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/alimillerrd   Eczema Kids Your Go-To Resource for Natural Eczema Solutions https://eczemakids.com Shop for Natural Solutions Shop for Natural Eczema Essentials and Skincare https://eczemakids.com/eczema-shop Transform Your Child's Health with the Eczema Elimination Method https://eczemakids.com/eczema-elimination-method Rebuild your child's skin barrier naturally with the Skin Comfort TrioSkin Comfort Trio https://eczemakids.com/eczema-kids-organic-skin-comfort-trio Join Our Free, Supportive FB Community- Eczema Solutions for Kids, Natural Healing and Comfort https://www.facebook.com/groups/3218060598452484 Follow me on Instagram @eczema.kids   Thank you for listening.

In this message from Proverbs, we explore how wisdom in parenting begins with respect—formed through humility, discipline, and centering our lives on God.

In this episode, I walk through the final phase of Child-Centered Play Therapy—the countdown and last session. Once a child is ready to terminate, our focus shifts to helping them process and celebrate the end of therapy in a healthy, meaningful way. I explain how to introduce the countdown, invite reflection, and give the child space to share memories of your time together without any pressure or expectation. This process allows the child to internalize their growth while preserving the connection and relationship that CCPT values. I also describe how to structure the final session, including practical ways to celebrate the child's work through small mementos and choices that reinforce empowerment and lasting connection. From personalized certificates to thoughtful take-home items, every element is designed to honor the child's progress while communicating that your relationship remains intact. Ending well is not just about closure; it's about celebrating the journey and ensuring the child leaves feeling capable and confident.

In the Summer of 1993, a leak in a south Minneapolis high-rise led a caretaker to a horrifying discovery: 35-year-old Jeanie Childs, murdered inside her apartment. On the floor beside her, a haunting clue: a trail of bloody bare footprints. Today we start at the beginning of a decades-long search for answers, tracing Jeanie's story, the evidence left behind, and the first threads investigators followed as they tried to uncover what really happened that night.

Your brain splits off traumatic memories to protect you, but healing means discovering layers you didn't know were buried. A child taught to watch for kidnapping at school can't feel safe even behind fences while other kids play freely, and recording that memory decades later reveals the mind buried the worst part until feeling safe enough to remember. Real-time inner child work demonstrates how placing your hand on your heart and speaking directly to that frightened part creates the relief you've been craving. Abuse survivors feel frustrated when "new" memories surface, but it means you're finally safe enough to handle them, and your sensitivity isn't a flaw but the exact quality that sustains human connection.

When Casey from Dallas, Texas was a child, her mother woke up night after night with small handprints and bruises on her legs — the size of a child's. As Casey grew older, those same marks began to appear on her arms and legs, even after moving to a new house. The activity didn't stop — it followed them. One night, her parents watched a young girl in a white nightgown drift down the hallway and walk straight into the wall. The next morning, every child in the house had been sound asleep. Years later, the strange presence resurfaced where Casey least expected it — her job at Wendy's. Late nights brought whispers, shadows moving across the dining room, and footsteps echoing through locked doors.  Was this the same entity that tormented her as a child? Or had she simply attracted something darker along the way? From a child spirit that never grew up to a restaurant that never truly closes, this is one haunting that proves some ghosts never leave — they just find new places to play. #ghoststory #realghoststoriesonline #haunting #DallasHaunting #WendysGhost #childspirit #paranormal #trueghoststory #creepyencounters #supernatural #hauntedplaces #realhaunting Love real ghost stories?
