007: Fostering Independence with Sarah Rosensweet

In this week’s episode, I talk about the importance of fostering independence instead of pushing your kids to become independent.

 

It’s natural as a parent to worry that your kids will grow up not being independent, so we sometimes try and push them to do things for themselves when maybe they need a bit more love and nurturing.

 

The key is to find balance on both sides.

 

Listen in as I talk about:

• The difference between letting your kids become independent vs. pushing them to be independent
• Why it’s okay to do things for your kids that they can do for themselves
• Tips to foster more independence with your kids
