Hey doc! In this episode, I'm challenging the notion of 'maternal instinct.' I dive into:
- Why most of what we consider 'instinct' is actually learned behavior
- How socialization shapes our parenting skills
- The pressure this myth puts on both moms and dads
- Why recognizing this can lead to more compassionate parenting
Key takeaways:
- True instincts are about survival, not diaper changes
- Most parenting skills are learned, not innate
- Recognizing this can relieve pressure and guilt
- We need to educate all genders equally about childcare
Remember, doc, not feeling an instant connection or knowing everything doesn't make you a bad parent. Let's reframe our expectations and give ourselves (and our partners) some grace!
