When parents mess up (Parenting the Parent with Dr Rebecca Ray)
As parents and carers, we want the best for our children but even with the best of intentions, there are times when we’ll slip up. So, how can we recover when we make mistakes? And how can we accept that at the end of the day, we’re human and bound to fail at least some of the time? In the final episode of Parenting the Parent, Dr Rebecca Ray and Shevonne Hunt discuss why it’s important for kids to see their parents slip up and the lessons that can be learnt in the recovery.

The identity crisis (Parenting the Parent with Dr Rebecca Ray)
Many parents, especially those with young children, find ourselves so caught up in the day-to-day that the other parts of our identity are subsumed. This can have a big impact on how we see ourselves outside the role of carer: as a sibling, a friend, a daughter, an employee or a lover. We might not have the time or the energy to devote to these relationships that we once did and feel less connected to our former, pre-parent selves. Dr Rebecca Ray and Shevonne Hunt talk about the shifting sense of self that parenthood inevitably brings and how we can reclaim what’s most important to us.

Carrying the load as a single parent (Parenting the Parent with Dr Rebecca Ray)
Being a solo parent, whether by choice, or by circumstance, means that the buck stops with you. There's no other adult to turn to in the middle of the night about the big decisions of parenting, or to share the domestic load. On the flip side, you can raise your kids how you see fit, without having to check in with anyone else. Dr Rebecca Ray and Shevonne Hunt discuss the challenges and the upsides to single parenthood.

How to manage emotional triggers (Parenting the Parent with Dr Rebecca Ray)
As parents, it often feels like our emotional needs are put last. So, we bury them, squishing them way down until we barely notice they’re there. But just like the adult on the plane who needs to secure their mask before tending to their children, we need to address our own s*%t so that we can be the best parents we can be. Dr Rebecca Ray and Shevonne Hunt discuss how to recognise our triggers, and how to best manage them.
