3. Parenting in Vacated Space Part 2: Giving Room to Grow

from The Spiritual Work of Parenting with Rav Shlomo Katz · host Rav Shlomo Katz

Do our children feel overprotected or stifled by us? Rebbe Nachman and Rav Erez Moshe Doron teach that children need distance to flourish — space to make their own choices, without being overshadowed by parental control. Rav Shlomo unpacks how “keeping a distance” is not neglect, but a form of holy patience that allows individuality and independence to blossom.
