Description

In this episode we are going to talk about all things control. I think there can be a lot of confusion for parents around control.
You hear phrases like keep your teens under control because you don’t want them to be out of control
and then you hear
don’t be too controlling or  over controlling,
or

And then you have parental controls for everything social media.
So I think it's easy to get confused about where you should stand on the whole control issue. In this episode we explore healthy control or monitoring vs being over controlling. We will look at the 4 traps over controlling moms fall into.
