Chinmayi Instagram – This. I wish there was a way to rewire everything that was said during childhood and whilst growing up. Please – Please be gentle, kind, loving to children. Yes, you’ll be overwhelmed, over sensitive, over stimulated, over touched. As one said – it doesn’t take a village to raise a child. It takes a village to support a mother. Kids who have gentler parents have a far more happier, healthier future. Choose who you want to be a parent with VERY CAREFULLY You are 100% responsible to give a child a trauma free (as much as possible) upbringing at home. I say as much as possible because in many families everybody has an opinion on child rearing, upbringing and intentionally or unintentionally pass on their trauma to the child. A mother’s parents / a father’s parents and in some cases grandparents, closest relatives all of them suddenly have a say. We can break the cycle. Try.
