If youâre parenting with intention, youâve probably felt this tension:
â
You want your child to be kind, thoughtful, and respectful.
â But you donât want them to lose themselves trying to keep everyone happy.
People-pleasing might look polite on the outsideâbut it often comes from fear: fear of disapproval, rejection, or not being âenough.â
What we really want is to raise kids who:
- Know who they are
- Trust their inner voice
- Can speak up with kindnessâand say no with confidence
That doesnât happen by demanding obedience.
It happens by listening, asking deeper questions, and letting them practice using their voice, even when itâs different than ours.
âš Letâs raise kids who are kind and courageous. Grounded in connection, not control.
