029 - Should I Get My Child’s Permission Before Doing Something That Involves Them?

Discerning Parenting

"Should I get my child's permission before doing something that involves them?"
This is a controversial topic. In this podcast, we're talking about young kids, and for some people, the concept of asking permission from a young child sounds absolutely absurd. While other people will insist that you should never do anything unless your child agrees to it.
No matter what the situation, and even starting from when the child is a baby, you should already always ask for their permission, let's say, before changing their diaper or before giving them a bath. Here at Discerning Parenting, we empower you with science-backed ideas and strategies to help you make better parenting decisions.
And we tackle this controversial issue head-on in this episode.
