Healing After Trauma: How Childhood Wounds Shape Our Parenting

Have you ever noticed how old wounds from our own childhood can echo in the way we parent? I remember a moment when my child’s tears triggered memories of my own childhood fears—times when I felt unheard or misunderstood. It’s incredible how those past hurts can resurface, sometimes making us react in ways we never intended. But acknowledging these triggers is the first step toward healing, both for ourselves and our children. We can break the cycle by choosing compassion and understanding, even when it’s hard.
