Walking on Eggshells With Your Child? Homeopathy’s Support for Parenting Challenges

“I cannot believe I’m sitting here writing this and coming to a wonderful end to my story. 

I decided to contact Eileen after months of feeling really worried and exasperated about my 5-year-old boy. He was a handful of emotions – angry, difficult to reason with, constantly fighting with me, needy, clingy and suffering from social anxiety. His little brother suffered because of his emotional outbursts.

I likened him to a volcano always about to erupt. I walked on eggshells from morning to night around him. We did all the parental behavioural skills, read every book on behaviour, but just couldn’t handle this little volcano that lived with us. I felt as if he had too much heat inside him and not enough coolness. 

I envied parents with easy breezy confident children that just rocked up to school or GAA….AND I BEGAN to doubt my own abilities to actually parent… I felt really low… I was burnt out.

After our first consultation, Eileen went through my son’s history and story and from there we began our journey.

Within three weeks I couldn’t believe the change in him. And with each consultation, Eileen reviewed every emotional issue, and mirrored this with the homeopathy treatment that was required each time. It was working. I could not believe it. Slowly, over the next few months i could see my real boy step forward into our lives, shedding his old coat.

The volcano is now a distant memory. The eggshells are back in their box and at home we have a funny little man whose laugh is infectious. He’s grown more independent, more empathetic and reasoning with him is no longer a major dramatic event. No longer clingy, he now just needs me at appropriate times.

My little man by nature will probably always be a little shy, but he definitely knows himself. His roots are strong and steady and he knows his own mind – he won’t be walked over.

A few weeks ago, we were at a restaurant, and he was sitting with his cousins. When the waitress came over to take his order, I wondered if I should intervene because he’d be too shy to talk. However, I need not have worried, confidently he asked for apple juice and ordered his meal. His voice was steady and his confidence was strong. That was a monumental moment for me. I felt tears well up and I thought of Eileen and wished she could see him now. 

We will forever be beyond grateful for having met Eileen and going on this healing journey with her. 

She is a wonderful professional – an expert in her field of homeopathy whose knowledge is simply astonishing. I’m in awe of her healing ability of human symptoms.

I cannot begin to express how happy I feel today as I sit here and look back over the past few months. Thank you, Eileen. You’ve no idea of the impact you’ve made to all our lives. We have been blessed to have met you and you’ve added so much positivity to our little man’s life for the better.” 

Forever grateful , Mairead, Jim Conor & Sean
