What if parenting wasn’t about being perfect—but about being real?This episode goes deep with Asma Saleh (@dr.asmahan.sk), a behavioral analyst and child psychologist, as she unpacks what “gentle parenting” really means—and what happens when it gets misunderstood. We explore how to handle anger, discipline without shame, and how to help kids regulate their emotions even if you weren’t taught how. It’s honest, vulnerable, and packed with real-life strategies.Are you ready to challenge everything you thought you knew about parenting?-00:00 – What is gentle parenting, really? 02:29 – Does bribing kids work? 04:58 – Who is Asma Sal? 07:27 – Neurodivergent vs. neurotypical kids? 09:56 – How does motherhood reveal old wounds? 12:25 – How do we raise emotionally smart kids? 14:55 – Why modeling emotions matters 17:24 – Can kids absorb our trauma? 19:53 – How does trauma pass through generations? 22:22 – Can small comments hurt a child’s image? 24:51 – Why should parents share their struggles? 27:20 – Phrases parents should stop using 29:50 – How fear-based parenting backfires 32:19 – How do threats impact trust? 34:48 – Why do we parent the way we were parented? 37:17 – How does fear shape adult love? 39:46 – Undoing fear-based habits 42:15 – Is 7 too late to change? 44:45 – Bribery vs. reinforcement 47:14 – Why kids don’t listen 49:43 – Are tantrums really that bad? 52:12 – Validating big feelings without enabling 54:41 – How to teach kids safe anger outlets 57:10 – How trauma shows up later in life 59:40 – How to build emotional safety -🌐Check me out on:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3YLNk40Podcast: https://apple.co/42PU02aIheart: https://ihr.fm/42x0jcdAmazon Music:https://amzn.to/4jVToiH-Hi, I’m Naila Nazer. I started the Untempered Podcast because I wanted a space where we can talk openly — about mental health, healing from trauma, life after toxic relationships, and the messy, beautiful process of self growth. Through sharing my own therapy journey and life experiences, I hope to create a safe space for personal storytelling, real conversations, and honest reflections. Healing isn’t easy, and growth doesn’t happen overnight, but together, through vulnerability and support, we can find our way forward.If you’re on your own healing journey, know you’re not alone — and I’m so glad you’re here.-#gentleparenting #gentleparentingtips #parentingtips
