We want to talk about parenting concepts that have worked for us and hopefully will benefit you guys. We\u2019re big on the notion of really noticing and paying attention and embracing our children\u2019s needs and wants while maintaining structure within the home. We think it\u2019s very important to find that middle ground of letting your kid be who they are while still setting appropriate boundaries.   This episode, we dive deep into parenting topics and discuss boundaries, societal expectations, allowing your kids to create the life they love and nurturing that, and keeping yourself in check as the parent to always do what\u2019s right for your children to allow them to flourish and become the best version of themselves.   Topics Discussed: [:55] About our topic today: parenting. [9:12] Expectations, parenting styles, and letting your kid be who they are. [11:55] About Kai and Leo\u2019s personalities. [16:30] The importance of setting boundaries while maintaining your children\u2019s freedom. [18:16] Perceptions matter: stories on how perceptions change our reality. [25:54] Embracing our children\u2019s interests, allowing them to flourish and become the best version of themselves. [26:16] Not giving into societal expectations and pressures of masculinity and raising boys. [27:44] Not letting the kids\u2019 apprehensions stop them from doing what they want and letting them gravitate to what they like. [29:32] Allowing the kids to create the life they love and helping to nurture that. [31:22] Helping our kids to become considerate of others. [33:18] Relationship tip of the week! [39:32] The most important thing: honoring who your kids are.   Relationship Tip of the Week Don\u2019t assume you\u2019ll be on the same page about schooling and parenting (in general). Talk about your parenting expectations. Whether you\u2019re planning on becoming parents or are already parents \u2014 or about to become parents \u2014 sit down and have discussions in terms of how you see your kid\u2019s life playing out. What kind of schools do they go to, how they play, technology use, extracurriculars, etc. Discuss the things that are important to you as well as deal breakers. It\u2019s a lot easier to make these decisions before you\u2019re forced to make them.   Mentioned in this Episode: Twelve Hours\u2019 Sleep by Twelve Weeks Old: A Step-by-Step Plan for Baby Sleep Success, by Suzy Giordano and Lisa Abidin Marianne Williamson   Find out more about IGNTD: IGNTD.com IGNTD.libysn.com   Subscribe to the Podcast iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher   Follow us on Social Media!
