Good Inside with Dr. Becky Dr. Becky Kennedy

My #1 source of parenting information. Dr. Becky’s approach is unique but feels so right. I love that she is speaking to parents on such a human level and is able to connect our own psychology to how we then move forward with our children in a positive way. She doesn’t expect you to be perfect by any means and genuinely feels like that special Aunt or big sister.

I look forward to all of her episodes and can’t get enough. Thank you for sharing all your insights and wisdom. Every time, it’s just so informative, interesting and makes me think!
Love it. Thank you!

I love the book with its emphasizing on belief in yourself as a good parent. Eye opening on how to handle kids and partner with different personality from oneself.

After listening to a couple of episodes (I still plan to do more), I feel some of the content is a tad trying too hard to keep positive. The episodes about father death and period are mostly about how to look for the silver lining and remove taboo. But I would love to hear about difficulties that is almost unsolvable but we still have to co-live with.

For example, the issue that I found hard to discuss about period is not what it is and medically what it means. It is that why it feels so uncomfortable, moody, sometimes painful and messy, inconvenient to plan sport/travel/important life events around and why half of the population doesn’t have to deal with any of it. Do I tell my girls that you just drew a short straw? It is not all covered by period meaning you are in good health state. There are women who don’t have periods for genetic and medical reasons and I have only heard good things about how they feel about not having it. There are contraceptive pills to be taken which might stop periods. Should we really be talking about the freedom of not having or minimizing the inconvenience, instead of accepting it happily?
