If you were a kid in the 1980’s, you were probably raised very differently than kids are raised now. You probably had more independence, lots of chores, and natural consequences when you didn’t do what you were supposed to do.

We discuss the gift of letting our kids experience their own mistakes so they can learn from them and become stronger, more resilient adults.
