Are We Raising Kids Who Are Too Fragile? Parent experts and everyone interested are welcome!! Something happened online this week that got me thinking. I commented on a video of a very cute little boy and said something along the lines of: “Be still my heart. What a delicious little boy. I just love this little angel.” It was meant exactly as it sounds—a compliment. The kind of thing many people have said about adorable children for generations. The mother’s only response was: “Remove that word.” I replied, “What word?” She said: “Delicious.” I explained that delicious is often used as an adjective to describe a child who is so adorable, lovable, and snuggle-worthy that your heart just melts. It wasn’t negative, inappropriate, or insulting. Quite the opposite. And it got me wondering… Have we reached a point where we’re searching for offense where none was intended? Are we becoming so sensitive that we’re losing the ability to interpret comments through the lens of kindness, context, and good intentions? More importantly… What are we teaching our children when every uncomfortable word, opinion, misunderstanding, or difference of perspective becomes a problem to correct? Life is full of people who won’t use the exact words we would choose. Life is full of misunderstandings. Life is full of moments where we have to pause, assume positive intent, and decide whether something is actually harmful—or simply different. Are we helping our children build resilience? Or are we unintentionally teaching them to see danger, offense, and hurt where none exists? I’d love to hear your thoughts. 👉 Join me for our Parenting Roundtable 📅 Monday 6/15 at 2:00 PM Eastern 🎙️ Topic: Are We Raising Kids Who Are Too Fragile? Live in my Skool Community https://www.skool.com/beabetterparent/about?ref=f798d3fd17924db88be9fc87b0784c1e We’ll have a respectful conversation about resilience, emotional intelligence, sensitivity, boundaries, intent, and what children really need to thrive in today’s world.

Such a great summit and sooo grateful for the replays!! Thank you for having me 🥰
