Episode 44 - Teaching kids not to be like us but to help them be like them - Dads + Bikes
Manage episode 313408028 series 3269666
Welcome back to another episode of the Dads+Bikes podcast experience.
We are back with Alix, Steve, Paul, and Ian and discussing how actually communicating with others at a young age helps build skills to excel later in life in the business world. As our children grow, it's the role of the parent to guide them in the best direction of their dreams and interests, but also based on our life experience and being supportive.
We discuss how our kids are not like us but we need to help them be like them. The question was raised on this gem: "I can teach my kid how to be like me but how do you teach your kid to be like them."
We also venture down the path of allowing a certain percentage of success when parenting. Aiming for 100% success when asking your kids to do something or try something new is heading down a road of unfulfilled expectations. However, possibly going for 50% or 85% leaves room for growth.
