Parenting Teens: The Biggest Job We’ll Ever Have Podcast

This sounds like a parenting conundrum, doesn’t it? So many parenting moments are moments of doubting what the outcome will be, and often doubting ourselves. That’s when we need to go back to our principles, and assure ourselves that even a bad outcome will move us into a new place of learning – about ourselves, as well as our children. This podcast is filled with gems of parenting wisdom from author and head of Hyde School, Laura Gauld.  The mantras we discuss include, This could be good, or this could be bad. Be ready to go to the wall. Let your child struggle without stepping in to lessen the discomfort. When your child screws up, take them back to the scene of the crime to make amends. Allow your children the same struggles that shaped you.
