Parenting
Perfectly Imperfect Parenting
Being the best parent you can means being human. To some, the idea of good enough parenting seems like lowering our standards. However, this webinar reveals how flaws are necessary in order for development to occur and how picture-perfect parenting does not produce the results we desire.
Course Content
- The impact of pressure on parents to be ‘perfect’
- How to ‘scaffold’ your children’s development instead of controlling them
- The importance and value of ‘good enough parenting’
- 4 challenges: good communication; challenging days; social media; and free play
