My daughter thanked me at dinner the other night for "not letting" her drop out of college.
She's an adult, so I couldn't have stopped her if I'd tried.🤷🏻♀️
What I did instead is why she thanked me.
Like me, you may be working hard to parent differently from the way you were raised. You don't want your kids to feel afraid, dismissed, or powerless. You want a close relationship built on trust.
Somewhere along the way, being the one in charge can start to feel like the opposite of being close. You worry that every limit you hold could damage the relationship you're working so hard to build.
How do you lead your kids without controlling them? How does that change as they grow?
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:
- The difference between parental authority and authoritarian parenting
- How your authority shifts as your kids grow, all the way into adulthood
- Where your influence comes from once you no longer have the final say
