We need to develop a regulation toolbox, a set of tactics we can pull from when our kids feel broken and turn to us for help. Having the proper parental hardware will allow us to vary our approach based on our children’s state at the moment and not hammer away with interventions that are unhelpful or ultimately backfire. We don’t want to look at every emotional struggle as all the same nail. […]

We explained that having children is only one part of becoming a parent – deciding that we want these children is another matter entirely, one that requires an active choice on our part to embrace each little life that has been sent our way. But much like we forget to find joy in so many things we already have, we overlook this point with our children as well.
