Understanding Your Child's Identity Struggles
Parents may find it difficult to understand their childโs shifting sense of self. Children with BPD might describe themselves as โghostlyโ or โinvisible,โ which can be confusing and painful for parents who are trying to help their child feel more secure and confident.
Managing Unpredictable Mood Swings
It can be tough for parents to handle the sudden changes in mood that come with BPD. A child might be happy and confident one day, but the next day, they could feel overwhelmed, sad, or angry. This makes it hard for parents to know how to support their child in a consistent way.
Dealing with Gender Identity Confusion
Some children with BPD may have strong feelings about their gender identity, which can create more uncertainty for parents. This can be especially difficult if the child expresses confusion about their gender or experiences anxiety about it, making parents unsure how to offer the right support.
