21st-century survival kit: Preparing the person, not the path
Loading player...
What if the fundamental job of a parent is not to protect our kids, but to prepare them?
In this reflective episode, our host shares a proud moment - his youngest's graduation - which leads to a profound reflection on a crucial parenting philosophy: "We should not prepare the path for our children, but rather prepare our children for the path."
This shifts the entire onus of responsibility to the parents. The host discusses what it truly means to equip children with a 21st-century survival kit. Should we ban social media outright, or teach them how to build a mental bulwark against the noise? Learn why resilience, critical thinking, and the ability to extricate a lesson from every failure are the most valuable tools you can impart.
