    2024/11/19

    • What "lighthouse parenting" is and how it differs from helicopter and snowplow parenting.
    • Why letting children struggle, face natural consequences, and solve their own problems is crucial for their development
    • How being a steady beacon of light, rather than a controlling force, can help build more confident, capable, and resilient kids
