How do we reconcile the desire to give our kids independence with the desire to protect them from the world? Dr. Emily Edlynn, author of the new book Autonomy-Supportive Parenting: Reduce Parental Burnout and Raise Competent, Confident Children, explains how we can let go of the anxiety-driven controlling impulses inherent in modern parenting.
In this interview, Dr. Edlynn and Margaret discuss:
The intersection of autonomy-supportive parenting and neurodiverse kids
What an autonomy-supportive environment looks like (and what gets in the way)
Tools we can use to prevent overparenting
