We all know parenting is hard. These kids didn’t come with a manual though sometimes I wish they did! I know I’m not alone in saying it often feels like I don’t know what I’m doing.

You may wonder why this series is called “Conative Parenting.” According to Dr. Harrison, the word “conative” refers to the third force of the psyche – the part that helps us change and grow. It seems like most of the time, we prefer to focus on the other two parts of the psyche: cognitive and emotional. And, of course, those aspects can’t be ignored. But having the ability to grow and change over time is an incredibly important skill, especially when it comes to parenting.
