This Parenting Mistake Is Destroying Kids’ Success

Send us Fan MailEvery parent wants their child to succeed. We don’t just want success; we want our kids to thrive! So why is it that so many parents make the same mistake over and over again instead of learning for parents with successful kids? I did a deep dive into parents with children thriving in the world and well into adulthood to see what they were being taught that all the rest of us weren’t.I started with conversations I never had with my parents, who were great parents and moved from there. What was it that made some kids more successful than others and how come it seems to flow in certain families.Bruce Lee has been credited with saying:“don't give them everything you didn't have, teach them everything you didn't know”I am not sure if he in fact said that, but the idea was brilliant. Now we focus on conversations and teachable moments with my daughters based on things that I didn’t learn until I was almost 40. Why don’t you join us and see what I am talking about.Support the show
