Ep 129: Asking For Help: Why Is It So Difficult?

Why is it so hard for your child to ask for help? Making the transition into independence can often backfire when your kiddo will not ask for help when they need it.

Listen to this inspiring Parenting With Impact episode with Elaine and Diane as they discuss the reasons kids have a hard time asking for and accepting help, and how we can prepare them to seek assistance when they need it.
