Published: Sept. 5, 2023, 7 a.m.

\u201cA demand is anything that is too hard in the present moment. And that can be for you or them. As a family, we have found the language of \u2018too hard\u2019 to be incredibly freeing. When things are hard, we show up, we do our best, we\u2019re brave, we ask for help. And when things are too hard, we find a way to let it go.\u201d

Amanda Diekman joins me in today\u2019s episode about Low Demand Parenting.
