Send us your thoughts about this week's episode!What happens when federal funding for education is put on ice? Join us as Coach Val and Dr. Tiffany reflect on the potent role of responsibility in shaping a child's development. Inspired by Jessica Lahey's "The Gift of Failure," we share practical nuggets on how parents can instill independence and self-reliance from preschool to high school. Our conversation highlights the immense value of allowing children to stumble and learn from their mistakes, building confidence and autonomy. Forget about dangling carrots; instead, we champion the power of cultivating intrinsic motivation to drive academic success and lifelong learning.Finally, we discuss the sheer power of natural consequences as a teaching tool. Personal anecdotes from children's church and parenting reveal how stepping back and letting kids solve their own problems can unlock creativity, confidence, and resilience. By guiding them with reflective questioning, we nurture their problem-solving skills and self-advocacy.
