Encouraging positive behaviors in kids without enabling
Description
As parents in the modern age; we want to undo a lot of the things that didn’t serve us as children and sometimes in our attempts to do better we can swing completely in the other direction and over-validate our children and enable undesired behaviors rather than encourage positive ones. I welcome Zack Kasabo who is a certified school counselor and parent coach.
We discuss:
- What enabling of behaviors actually means
- Why children are learning “learned helplessness”
- What corrective validation is and how to use it
