7 Ways to Ditch Parent Envy
👇 Podcast: Parenting Your "Nearly Grown" JUST. GOT. EASIER.👇
#105 My child can't do that . . . didn't make the team . . . had lower ACT/SAT scores than the kid down the street.
Envy sneaks up on us. Here is a plan to help stop that.
Envy. It's a thief that robs we parents of joy. It transcends age and it's sadly timeless.
We all suffer from this envy-disease at some point.
It adds stress. It adds pressure. It affects relationships with your kids. If you are following my podcast you already know how much I believe in simple strategies and tactics that we parents can use in our last season with our kids. I've got 5 ways that not only I, but other parents, have used to combat being envious of other people's kids and their accomplishments. But they can be applied to so much more than just our child relationships. You'll see how to adapt them to so much more for you personally.
The hidden lesson here? These ideas are concrete, easy, and you can pass them on to your kids for their own envy distractions. It all adds up to a great last lesson you can use for yourself and give your child more tools for their "out the door and graduated" use.
In this podcast, you'll find out:
- Who should "own" the envy problem
- Who you should actually celebrate
- What should happen BEFORE tackling a new "thing" that most never do (my favorite point)
- Why you might miss the true success. Learn where to look.
- What Facebook and Instagram never tell you
