When Protection Mode Takes Over: Tools for Parents and Kids to Reconnect

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we’re diving into the dynamic of connection vs. protection mode—a concept that impacts both adoptive parents and their kids. We’ll explore why all behavior makes sense when we look beneath the surface, how protection behaviors often stem from a desperate need for connection, and why co-regulation is the key to helping our kids (and ourselves) move from survival to connection.

    We’ll also tackle the tough stuff: how to recognize when we as parents slip into protection mode, practical strategies for staying grounded, and how moments of repair can strengthen your relationship with your child.

    This conversation is real, relatable, and packed with hope. You don’t have to be a perfect parent to make a lasting impact—all it takes is showing up with empathy and a willingness to connect. Tune in and let’s navigate this journey together!
