22. ESFJ Ox, Type 2, Erin Lockwood, Gifted, ODD, ADHD, Boundaries and Non Traditional School, ie. "Whack a Mole Parenting"

In this episode I interview Erin Lockwood who travels all over the world with her family to create their YouTube channel called Always Be Changing. Erin is an ESFJ Ox, type 2 on the Enneagram. She is parenting three children and two of them are her opposites. Her son Colt is an ENTP Eagle, who tested as gifted, but doesn’t respond well to discipline and a typical school environment. Her daughter Brooklyn is an ISTP, the same type as my daughter, but a type 5 on the Enneagram, which will be the next episode now that we have wrapped up the heart center with types 2,3 and 4. Since Erin is a type 2 parenting a type 5, I thought it would be a great segway. I met Erin because her pediatrician recommended, she come see me before she pursued other psychological testing for her son Colt. I want to be the first and hopefully the last place families can get answers when they are wondering if their child’s behavior is normal. I talk with Erin about

1. Her decision to pull her kids out of school and travel the world

2. The secret cure for her son’s emotional impulsiveness and oppositional defiance

3. Why it isn’t okay for her to hug her type 5 daughter

4. And how she has learned to set boundaries and separate facts from her very strong feelings.
