Part 4: Breakthrough Parenting Series—Moving Toward Independence

As parents, our ultimate goal is to raise happy, healthy, and independent adults. It is often a struggle to balance being assertive about your child’s needs and working within systems that can feel overwhelming and complicated. Not only do we as parents need to learn to speak up, but we need to teach our children to advocate for themselves, as well. Our last installment in the parenting series presents final insights with humor and compassion.
