Pride-based written self-affirmation exercises increased parents’ positive self-concept and their interest in parenting programs and resources

GOOOD MOOOORNING! Today is going to be a good day, can’t you just feel it? After your daily dose of Selfpause, you are going to be unstoppable. Let’s dive right in, shall we?

Some neat stuff we discovered for ya:

  • A somewhat recent study linked written affirmations to help parents be more open to accepting help and participating in parenting programs along with boosting their self-esteem as parents

  • Being a parent in the modern era has changed us, now modern-day mothers have moved to online outlets to find support

  • Because we can all use encouragement, we have some affirmations about being a good parent

Pride-based written self-affirmation exercises increased parents’ positive self-concept and their interest in parenting programs and resources

Hey parents, feeling a little unsure about your parenting skills? Don't worry, we've got you covered! A study published in the Journal of Family Psychology found that practicing self-affirmations can help boost your confidence and interest in parenting programs.

Here's what went down:

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Over 1,000 parents with kids under 13 were recruited for the study (that's a lot of little ones!)

đź“ť The parents were asked to do a pride-based self-affirmation exercise (think: writing down positive things about themselves)

🤔 The results? Parents who did the exercise had a more positive self-concept and were more interested in parenting programs and resources. This was especially true for parents who were afraid of being judged for seeking help (we've all been there!)

So go ahead, give yourself a little love, and watch your parenting skills soar! Your kids (and your mental health) will thank you. ❤️

MODERN-DAY PROBLEMS FOR MOTHERS AND THEIR NEW ONLINE COMMUNITY

Katie Clark, author of Modern Mom Probs: A Survival Guide for 21st Century Mothers, talks about the importance of normalizing taboo topics surrounding motherhood, the pressure on modern-day moms, and the changing sense of community in terms of raising children.

Here are the meaty details:

  • The pandemic has increased pressure on modern-day moms, as the sense of community has moved online, where mothers face judgment and shaming but can also share experiences and normalize conversations.

  • The book covers issues like online mommy shaming, screen time, car naps, and toddlers' eating habits as well as more weighty issues like infertility and postpartum depression.

  • A "Modern Mom Prob" is a new problem that mothers face, such as a kid interrupting a Zoom call.

  • The author is grateful for social media platforms that allow women to be honest and truthful about their experiences.

  • The author advises mothers to prioritize their mental health and well-being, delegate responsibilities, and be kind to themselves.
