Helicopter parent, tiger parent, bulldozer parent, lawnmower parent?
Generation Zers have a reputation of being super-entitled, but this attitude is often created by parents who mow down every obstacle in their kid's path, never letting them fail or fall or screw things up. In How to Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids and Be Ok with It, humorist, author, columnist, and parenting expert Lisa Sugarman takes her humanistic approach to parenting Gen Z kids and tells it like it is.
Sugarman reminds parents that it's okay (and important) for kids to confront obstacles, it's okay if your kids aren't perfect, and it's okay to say "no". The goal isn't to raise perfect children; the goal is to raise kind, responsible adults, and it's a process.
How to Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids reminds listeners that making mistakes and figuring out problems lead to lessons. And the fixating on raising the smartest, fastest, most successful kid will never result in a happy child (or a happy parent). With healthy doses of humor and reality, Sugarman reminds us that our kids were never meant to be perfect, and perfectly imperfect kids can become wonderful, well-rounded adults if we just give them the space and opportunity to grow.
How to Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids and Be OK with It is a unique blend of practical, real-life parenting advice from deep inside the trenches with proven clinical strategies, language, and tips from Sugarman's childhood friend and colleague Debra Fox Gansenberg, MSW, LICSW, founder and president of New Beginnings Counseling.

What is the difference between the kid who struggles to "adult" and the one who jumps in feet first, ready to thrive? It all comes down to mindsets, skillsets, and toolsets. Either we as parents raise kids who are dependent on us or we raise kids who are confident, capable, and eager to take on the challenges of an independent adult life.

Historia
While there are no bad kids, more often than not, there are also no bad parents. Where parents tend to go wrong lies in their discipline methods. Poor behavior from kids can drive any parent crazy, but reacting based on emotions can be the worst foundation for discipline. So why not try a different approach?

Historia
Every parent has dealt with the frustration of a child who won't listen. Whether it's asking them to do chores, or reminding them of household rules, it can sometimes feel like your kid is tuning you out entirely. Learning how to properly discipline your child can actually help you to develop a stronger, more positive bond with them over the years. They'll find security and reassurance in the consistency of consequences, both positive and negative.
