We are raising children in a whole different world than we were raised due to the advances in technology and a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic. One societal “long COVID” symptom of the pandemic is the delayed social-emotional development of our children who were elementary age and younger prior to the start of the pandemic. This symptom will likely not be fully realized until we experience a cohort of children with delayed social-emotional and behavior regulation skills. Pandemic parents and our children need support like never before! We can be the generation that disrupts parenting from a discipline-based approach to one emphasizing teaching of social-emotional and behavior regulation skills first.
