It’s tempting to step in. But what if the struggle is the lesson?
Teens build self-reliance when we give them space to try, stumble, adjust, and try again. It’s not about perfection—it’s about permission to build their own strength.
💬 Reflect with your child: “What’s something you’re proud of figuring out lately—even if it took a few tries?”
💡Action: Identify one area where you're over-helping. Can you step back and let them lead, even if it’s messy?
