(2021_62) 불안한 엄마 무관심한 아빠 - 오은영

 

I read Dr Oh's recent book, "Anxious Mom Indifferent Dad". In this book she talks about the core reason why so many of mom and dad deal with their children in a wrong way.

There are too much information about parenting these days. It's kind of golden age of ' untrustworthy expert'. Even though there are so many of parenting ways, which is known to be reliable, we need to be more tailored with our kids in many ways so there is no right answer that can be applied to all of us. But the problem is that parents haven't had such a right treatment from our parents, who were born in 1950s ~ 1960s. Therefore, we need to acknowledge our lack of proper experience and knowhow. and we need to learn to be more tolerable to our kids without expectation of being perfect. I think it matters the most! We should dismiss perfectionism for our kids.
