Chris Do, an entrepreneur, educator, and parent of two, discusses life lessons he's learned and how he imparts them to his children. Chris explains why there is not a one-size-fits-all approach to parenting, along with four key parenting lessons for raising children who are grateful and good decision-makers. Learn why we should treat our children as individuals, live by example, let go, embrace an attitude of gratitude, overcome moments of failure, reframe their world, have a hands-off approach, and know that we’re all learning and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting.
