Listen "How Much is Too Much? Problems and Solutions for More Effective Parenting of College Students"
Episode Synopsis
The transition to college is a significant milestone for both students and their parents. It's a time when young adults begin to assert their independence and navigate the complexities of adulthood but also the first time that parents are experiencing their kiddo being gone for longer than a summer camp session. The role of parents during this period can be a delicate balancing act. Well, maybe not balancing act. More like being unceremoniously placed on the sidelines. While support and guidance are crucial, helicopter parenting can mess with your student's development and self-sufficiency. This article explores the fine line between supportive and overbearing parenting, the impacts of excessive involvement, and strategies for parenting your kiddo through college.https://www.youtube.com/channel/motivatecounselinghttps://motivatecounseling.com/https://motivatecounseling.com
