"What If?" - The Heartbreak of Parenting #155

from Coffee in the Corral · host AJ

It's a tough one for me today. Being a parent who loves their kids as deep and as wide as possible and watching your kids grow up and struggle might be one of the hardest parts of parenting I have yet experienced.Today I share about how I am learning to let go of my need to make my kids happy and learn to let them have their own experiences. Somedays I feel so heavy hearted for them and wish so bad that I could make it all better.This episode is for those parents going through the season of their kids getting older. I see you. I feel you. We must remember that this too shall pass. And if you need an excellent book to remind you to stay in your lane, check out this book."Too Much - A Guide to Breaking the Cycle of High-Functioning Codependency." by Terri Cole
