In this week's podcast, counselor and author John Sternfels shares the importance of Healthy Parenting. 

Healthy parenting is a multifaceted approach that involves providing emotional, physical, and cognitive support to foster a child's overall well-being and development. It goes beyond meeting basic needs and extends into creating a nurturing and positive environment that promotes a child's growth, self-esteem, and resilience.

It is an ongoing process that evolves with the changing needs of both parents and children. By fostering a supportive and loving environment, promoting open communication, and embracing adaptability, parents can contribute significantly to their child's holistic development. Remember that no parent is perfect, and learning from successes and challenges is integral to the parenting journey.


In today’s podcast, I will share a basic understanding of the 12 key aspects of Healthy Parenting.

1. The first is Emotional Connection

2. The second is Communication

3. The third is Setting Boundaries

4. The fourth is Positive Role Modeling

5. The fifth is Promoting Independence

6. The sixth is Physical Health

7. The seventh is Emotional Regulation

8. The eighth is Educational Support

9. The ninth is Quality Time

10. The tenth is Flexibility and Adaptability

11. The eleventh is Encouragement and Positivity

12. The twelfth is Cultural and Social Awareness
