About this listen

As the millennial generation moves into their parenting years, posting on social media about milestones, memories, and good times is almost second nature. Families can seem "perfect," and some parenting methods are heralded as "the best." However, behind closed doors, many parents and caregivers struggle greatly no matter what method or combination of parenting methods they use. There are points where it seems like you've tried everything. Maybe it even feels hopeless. That's where A Parent's Guide to Self-Regulation comes in.

This book will demystify the concepts of dysregulation and parental self-regulation, and will normalize prioritizing these skills for parents, before bringing the concepts into parenting children. With this book's step-by-step framework, you will learn how to mitigate tough parenting moments, develop self-regulatory skills, and hear real accounts from other parents. From addressing societal myths about dysregulated parenthood to tips on re-parenting yourself for better regulation and everything in-between, this book will serve as both a friendly companion and a source of solid, evidence-based advice.

A Parent's Guide to Self-Regulation is written by Dr. Amber Thornton, a clinical psychologist and mother of two, who knows what it feels like to struggle with dysregulation and self-regulation as a parent.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Not the helpful guide I was hoping for.

The author spent so much time going over mundane details around her research demographic and discussing what disregulation is (a short overview is fine, but it was long and unhelpful). so little time was spent building helpful strategies to implement to improve one's ability to self-regulate and also model self-regulation for our children we are trying to help.

Life Changing!!!!

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Amber Thornton at an event in 2024. At the time her book was pending to be released. I pre ordered and read it upon receiving it. Great pointers and great information. In a world where we have many expectations and trying to unlearn the parenting trauma this is the book we need. The audio book is also GREAT. The Narrator did an amazing job. I plan to continue to listen to this as I implement the necessary changes to facilitate a constructive home environment for my family and little ones. Thank you Dr. Thornton. Your vulnerability has allowed others like to me become self conscious of our parenting to foster an EMOTIONALLY, REGULATED approach!! Thank you. Thank you!!!! 💜💜
