How can you help your teen become more independent?
This one simple question will help you boost your parenting skills for daily decision-making.
Parenting is an interesting thing… One day our child is completely dependent on us and we’re in charge of everything. Then they grow up and it’s hard to know what we’re still in charge of and what not. How can we best support them to become independent young adults?
I can tell you one thing: We step in way more than we need to.
“We need to help them turn on their own inner engine, to motivate self-governing,
and to influence independence” - Beth Hillman
Today’s simple question will help you do a day-to-day check-in with yourself to support independence in your teen and boost your daily teen parenting skills.
Alright parent, let’s dive in.
In this episode on supporting independence in your teen, we discuss:
- How to best support your teen to turn on their own inner engine, motivate self-governing, and influence independence?;
- Is your teen actually asking for your help or not?;
- Is you trying to help them, actually helpful for your teen?;
- Is ‘dealing with consequences’ a value you hold in your family?;
- My personal story of how my son’s showed me they wanted to learn to deal with consequences;
- And more!
