How can we raise our kids to be self-confident, without accidentally getting in their way? Sometimes, parents’ anxiety about getting it right can lead us to be overprotective—this can hinder kids’ opportunities to practice how to handle it when things go wrong.

Dr. Rebecca Abbott-Sinclair taught practical strategies to reduce overparenting, foster your child’s autonomy, and manage your own parenting anxieties. She explored how today’s parenting trends impact children and shared evidence-based, actionable tips to help kids increase their own coping skills and resilience. Rebecca also answered questions from participants in a Q&A session at the end, moderated by Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani.

This webinar was conducted in partnership with Park Slope Parents, our wonderful local resource for parent support in Brooklyn. The recording for this webinar is available for free to PSP members and for $25 to non-members. Email events@parkslopeparents.com for access.
