Reem Raouda is a leading voice in conscious parenting and advocate for children's emotional health.

She says the phrase "you're okay" is the most dangerous phrase in parenting.

Instead of comforting, it's teaching kids to doubt their own emotions, she says.

Reem: "I believe you" - "Your feelings make sense" - “I’m right here with you” - "I saw what happened".
