Do you need a good mom?

2025/8/13 Edited to

... Read more「いいママ」を演じ続けることがなぜ自分自身を裏切ることになるのか、私も長い間悩んできました。実際に私は、感情の起伏が激しくなることもあり、周りの期待に応えようと無理を重ねてしまいました。 そんな時に大切だと感じたのは「完璧であることをやめる勇気」です。日々の忙しさの中で、少し立ち止まって深呼吸をするだけで気持ちは落ち着きます。例えば、「今はしんどい」と素直に伝えることや、35分だけでも自分の時間を作ること。これが自分を守る小さな一歩になりました。 私の体験から、コーチの方に好かれる親になる秘訣は、まず自分の感情を認め、コントロールすることです。感情の起伏が激しいと感じる親御さんも多いと思いますが、それを否定せず受け入れ、周囲に伝えることで不必要なプレッシャーを減らせます。 また、家族の平和を優先して自分の心を犠牲にしないことが大切です。「いいママ」よりも「幸せなママ」でいることの方が、結果的に子どもにとっても理想的だと気づきました。あなたもこの記事を読んで、自分自身を裏切らずに楽になれるヒントを見つけてほしいと思います。
