Two people agreed to have tried, it had been a struggle, but it’s still an open conversation. Sometimes things went well, and sometimes they didn’t. It was difficult in the beginning, but it's now progressing better. Unfortunately, the rest of the 27 participants said that they were met with aggression and that the family refused to take accountability. Things have turned around, and there are a lot of deflections. The tables are turned, and they are blamed for all the situations by being told that they were terrible children.

Join this conversation as we talk more about the steps you can take to start the conversations of redemption. Tune in!

Generational trauma is how a traumatic event is replicated and passed down between generations. It often occurs through nurture, with one person modelling their behavior on that of their parents or family members who had similar experiences themselves. If a child is raised in an abusive environment where their parents or other family members often beat them, they will treat their own children similarly unless the cycle is broken.

Learn more about the generational traumas in this first episode of The Motivated Mama Podcast. This is a podcast community for parents that want to be authentically themselves while looking for judgement-free, genuine, and heartfelt parenting advice. We talk to other mothers and experts to get small and easy steps that we can take to help us accomplish our goals. Discover ways to break unproductive behavior patterns repeated generation after generation in our families.

 Notable Quotes

• “Generational trauma does not mean that you had bad parents, or you were not brought up well.”
