How can I not rescue, and not enable, and at the same time not leave my kid completely in the dark when they’re struggling?
This is the question we’re going to dive into in today’s episode.
As a parent, it’s SO hard to see your kid struggling and not knowing how to help. I’ve been there, and I know it’s beyond a nightmare.
You’re fearful of doing the wrong thing. Fearful of doing nothing. You’re trying your absolute best but it’s hard to understand the tipping point between what is kind and helpful and what is actually enabling and rescuing.
When we start parenting based on our fears, we fall into reactive parenting, instead of being thoughtful.
Let’s have a look at what this looks like and some actionable examples of situations we’ve found ourselves in and how we handled (or wish we’d handled) them in today’s episode.
In this episode on fear-based parenting, we discuss:
- Two common ways fear-based parenting can manifest: overprotecting & authoritative;
- You’re not your child’s friend and shouldn’t behave like one;
- Power struggles in your family;
- Owning your own fear and anxiety;
- Examples from our own experiences;
- And more.
