Hi all! I hope you're having a good week. Today's vlog is on coddling. My message to parents--and other family members--is to avoid coddling your children with chronic health issues and special needs. Let them grow, learn, explore, make friends, and be independent. It will help your child develop into a strong, confident adult. Of course, you need to do this according to your child's abilities and needs, but each child should be encouraged to be as independent as possible. Do you tend to be protective of your children, whether they have health issues or not, or do you let them explore their world? I'd love to hear your take on this issue.
