Extreme Parenting Robs You of Your Right to Set Healthy Boundaries

The ability to speak up for yourself starts in childhood. Children born to healthy parents are encouraged to explore their environments, and are supported when they make a mistake. Mistakes are a part of the natural order of life, and healthy parents know that encouragement helps build resiliency. On the other hand, extreme parenting leads to a fear of speaking up for oneself, which often leads to issues with codependency, people-pleasing, and subjugation for the sake of acceptance and validation.    In relationships like moths to flames, codependents tend to find themselves entangled with master manipulators who exploit a codependent need for approval and fear of rejection.    In this episode, you will learn about how extreme parenting leads to problems with setting appropriate boundaries and a deficits in self-advocacy.    Take this opportunity to participate in Lisa's Free 10 Day Living Above the Veil Challenge! https://www.lisaaromano.com/10-day-challenge
