Parenting is tough! Most of us have some preconceived ideas about what parenting will be like, what our kids will be like, and how we'll handle the challenges that arrive. But as soon as the baby takes that first breath all of those ideas are out the window! So how can we support our child as who they are and who they're going to be? And when can we ever find the time?? Karen Deerwester is here to help. Her company, Family Time, is a place for parents with small kids to come to learn together in a way that doesn't add stress to your day. She has so much knowledge about child development and has learned a lot about parent development along the way!

Episode #163 Working Moms Continued by Karen Deerwester

Many caring moms and dads today have turned away from the authoritarian parent model they may have grown up with. The new approach is often influenced by the belief that a parent should be a child's friend. In that role, it's hard to say "no." When kids only hear "Yes, of course you can, sweetheart." how can they learn how to deal with life's inevitable frustrations, obstacles, and set-backs and become responsible and resilient? And how can parents live under the stress of having to be the "perfect" parent all the time? "Perfect parents don't raise perfect children," says Karen Deerwester, parent coach and author of The Entitlement-free Child. "They raise children feel not good enough." Annie talks with Karen about we got here and how parents can give kids a "voice and a choice" without giving them the power to call all the shots.
