You Are a Better Parent Than You Think You Are!

Published: Aug. 8, 2023, 10 a.m.

All parents think that they fail and ask themselves questions such as \u201cAm I an imposter?\u201d or \u201cDo my kids listen?\u201d or just find themselves giving negative self-talk. Your kids often don\u2019t live up to their full potential until you\u2019re not around. Generally it\u2019s when you\u2019re not there that they\u2019ll think of that thing you were trying to teach them and they\u2019ll live it. Parenting is one of the hardest things either of us has ever done, but it\u2019s also the most rewarding thing we\u2019ve ever done and failure and struggle are just part of the journey.

  • Reflecting your teachings when you\u2019re not around 1:30
  • Getting outside affirmation 4:35
  • The benefits of apologizing to your kids 10:25
  • Being humble and looking for ways to heal from fight or flight 14:40
\u201cIf you follow any of the people who give advice about parenting, what I like about them is they\u2019ll give you real life examples about experiences that were tough and they\u2019re telling us that this is the optimal thing to do, but even they find it difficult to do the optimal thing all of the time. They know what the right thing is to do, but they say it\u2019s trial and error for them trying to implement it. It makes you realize that until you\u2019ve done it once or twice, you won\u2019t have a vision for it.\u201d 5:30
