124. (S8E8) Keep All Options on the Table
from Brave Writer
In our last episode, I explored the difference between setting boundaries and setting rules. I want to continue that conversation because there is so much to tease apart between the two. Part of what makes setting boundaries so difficult is the sense of responsibility parents or caregivers have over their children: responsibility to create a healthy environment, to ensure a solid education – whether at home or at school, and to provide food and a safe place to live. But, in the midst of all of those responsibilities, we can sometimes substitute a personal agenda or dream in its place. There is a difference between having a joyful vision of family life that includes opportunity for growth, and learning, and love versus a specific vision you feel you must protect in order to think you are successful. The only way to have a beautiful outcome in your family is to keep all options on the table at all times.
