NorthPoint Counseling Perspective
Episode 1: Developing a Positive Parent and Child Relationship
In this podcast, counselor and author, John Sternfels shares the importance of Healthy Parenting.
The parent-child relationship is a fundamental and unique bond that plays a crucial role in shaping an individual's development and well-being. It is a complex interplay of emotions, responsibilities, and influence that evolves over time. This relationship typically begins with the birth of a child, but it extends far beyond infancy, shaping the individual throughout various stages of life.
The parent-child relationship undergoes significant transformations during adolescence. Parents must navigate the delicate balance between granting autonomy and providing guidance as children assert their independence. Trust and mutual respect become paramount, and maintaining a supportive connection can positively impact a teenager's self-esteem and decision-making.
