Listen "How Aiming For Perfection Hurts Our Children"
Episode Synopsis
Do you believe in the saying that says, “A diamond is a chunk of coal that did well under pressure?”. I used to believe that, I used to believe that perfection is everything, that perfection is the goal. And I used to believe that success is a result of perfection. Little did I realize that perfection is boring, but getting better is where all the fun is.
Similarly, with parenting, many of us parents expect perfection. Some parents view their children as extensions of themselves and these kids are the ones suffering. They are putting pressure on their kids to do good, to be the best and not make any mistakes. They hope that by pushing their children to succeed, they can heal their own wounds of failure.
In this episode, I would like to share with you why parenting shouldn’t aim for perfection. How this kind of parenting affects our children negatively and how we can still repair our relationship with our children.
