In this episode, I'll expose the hidden dangers of permissive parenting that loving parents never see coming, and the biggest risk isn't what you think. While you may be using permissive methods to nurture your child's creativity and build their confidence, this approach often creates the exact opposite of what you're hoping for. I'll reveal five devastating risks of saying yes too often, including the heartbreaking things adult children say to their permissive parents that will shock you. The next time your child begs and pleads for you to change your mind about a boundary you've set, you'll think twice after watching this video and understanding the real long-term consequences of avoiding conflict and structure in your parenting.
New to my podcast? I’m Dr. Lindsay Emmerson, a clinical psychologist and Mom of 4, and I help parents find that sweet spot between support and structure that psychology research tells us is best for families now and best for our kids in the future.
