How can parent coaching help with parenting?
I am a parent of 3 adult children; therefore, I understand the challenges facing parents. It is arguably the hardest job we will do, yet, there are no training manuals. Each child comes with their own individual traits. These challenge us in different ways. There is plenty of information on the best way to raise your child. However, applying it to one’s own situation is challenging. Changing expectations from striving to be “perfect parents” to being “good enough parents” allows us to be human. Therefore, we can acknowledge our limitations. As a result, there is no perfect parent although we can strive for “good enough”. Working to extend and build on your parenting skills with parent coaching can support you in your parenting tasks. We work together in partnership to strengthen your skillset. This enables your child(ren) to become responsible, confident, capable, independent, and resilient young people.
