The Art of Raising Humans

How to Set Boundaries Without Becoming a Permissive Parent — While Staying Deeply Connected (Episode 165)


Listen Later

In this episode, Kyle and Sara tackle a struggle many intentional parents face:

“I want to be gentle and connected… but am I being too soft?”

The fear of being too authoritarian often pushes parents toward permissiveness—leading to unclear boundaries, power struggles, and anxiety in kids. But there’s a better way.

This conversation is all about loving guidance—a balanced approach that gives your kids structure, emotional support, and room to grow, while helping you stay grounded in your values.

 

Kyle and Sara walk you through 8 practical ways to avoid permissive parenting, so you can stay connected without losing clarity, leadership, or confidence.
