38. Modern parenting: Here's what we've misunderstood

They're all over social media; Funny memes with parents mocking modern parenting - showing the ridiculous ways that we as parents have become subservient to our children and scared to put a foot wrong.


It's funny. And sadly true.

In this episode I ask the question:
How have we gotten here?
And I offer my perspective on what many of us have misunderstood in the pursuit of giving our children a sense that they matter, that their feelings are valid and that they're unconditionally loved.



Feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all?
No wonder. Parenting is hard! Just as you thought you'd nailed it - a new thing comes up;
Your child wants a phone
Your tween starts becoming more sassy
Your toddler won't sleep on their own

Rather than searching on the internet for tips and tricks to deal with your unique family - know that I am here to support you.
Parenting support - tailored to your family - in a way that suits you best;
