The Over-parenting Culture, Striking The Right Balance For Children’s Growth |EP112|

|EP112|  Today on Stay At Home Dads Podcast I open the show talking about politics, discussing some interesting and ridiculous comments made by a California city council member.  Nithya Raman suggests we should put blame for auto part theft on big corporations rather than the criminals themselves.  I then get into the topic of parenting styles and my own struggle with being at times, an over parent.  Doing too much, helping too much, and just being a little too overbearing are things I think some of us can relate to.   I talk about some of the pros and cons of this parenting style as well as why we tend to do it despite the negative effects it can have on children.  I will continue this conversation next week talking about other parenting styles like free range parenting and the effects they have on kids as well.  If you have any questions of comments please check out Stay At Home Dads instagram page @stayathomedads_podcast or on my Pod Bean page.  Thanks for listening!
