In this episode, we’re talking about finding clarity in those moments where we’re needing to bring limits in closer, while being mindful to not move into overbearing “power over” parenting. For context, this conversation is between two people who strive for mutually empowering and non-coercive parenting as much as possible. Because of the potential for harm in powering over, we don’t take it lightly when we need to move into benevolent leadership as parents.
