Sara Chatwin: Psychologist at MindWorks talks when to let your kids make their own decisions

Description

Our kids are growing up, and with that comes the parental obligation to allow them to start making decisions for themselves. 

This come after we saw the story of the Gaza Flotilla and an interview with the father of Sam Leason, an 18 year old who was a part of the recent flotilla to Gaza. 

I think regardless of your views, most parents would be pretty hesitant to allow their teenager to head off into a warzone. But truly, at 18, what can we really do? 

How much guidance should parents be giving their kids once they reach those older years?

Psychologist at MindWorks Sara Chatwin joined Tim Beveridge on The Parent Squad.
