Are you exhausted from walking on eggshells around your own children? You are not alone.In this episode of The Rising Parent Podcast, Tim and Edna dive deep into the phenomenon of gentle parenting burnout. For years, millennial and Gen Z parents have strived to break generational cycles, but many have found themselves accidentally trapped in permissive parenting. This well-intentioned shift has led to anxious kids and completely overwhelmed adults. Join us as we explore the pivot to balanced discipline, a compassionate yet firm approach that combines high connection with high boundaries.We discuss how to hold space for big emotions without sacrificing your authority, the danger of endless narrating instead of acting, and how to effectively manage your own triggers when your toddler or school-aged child melts down. You will discover practical scripts, real-life examples, and actionable strategies to help you stop negotiating and start becoming the confident leader your child desperately needs to feel safe.If you want to support our mission outside of the podcast, we are raising funds for our non-profit mobile food bank.
