How to Be a Better Parent: Developmental Psychologists Bronwyn Charlton (Molly’s Therapist!) and Aliza Pressman Give Us the Tools for Advocating vs. Helicoptering, Raising Good Humans and Independent Thinkers, Managing Discomfort, and More

The Seedlings Group is an amazing organization. Co-Founders, Bronwyn Charlton and Aliza Pressman, not only happen to be the best at what they do in their field of developmental psychology but they are also both very near and dear to Molly and Emese’s hearts. We really wanted to do an episode dedicated to parenting styles and specifically dissect the differences between helicoptering and advocating—it’s such a grey line, isn’t it?! Plus, we wanted to hone in on what the tools are we need to ensure we raise our children into stellar adults. Pretty loaded but we think we made headway. If you’re a parent, experienced or not, or thinking of starting a family, we recommend you give this episode a listen.
