How Parenting Styles Create Maladaptive Behavior in Children
Most parenting advice creates broken adults. Society pressures us to raise "convenient" children, but this approach severely damages their emotional development and mental health. Children deserve to be emotional, needy, and sometimes chaotic as they navigate a confusing world with underdeveloped coping skills. When we force them to suppress these natural tendencies, we create adults who struggle with self-worth and emotional connection. In this video, I break down four destructive expectations society places on children and reveal how these create maladaptive behaviors. Whether you're a parent or healing from your own childhood wounds, this information will help you understand and overcome these damaging patterns.
