What happens in this story4 scenarios
They climb into your lap and ask you to tell them a story — a real one, about when you were young. You close your eyes and realize these memories are the inheritance that matters most.
What started with the story hour just got more complicated. Now you need to navigate the tension between spoiling and supporting without undermining parents — and the situation is shifting faster than your first approach can handle.
This is the moment you've been building toward. Finding your role when your child's parenting style is nothing like yours was — except now the stakes are real and there's no rehearsal. What you do next matters.
You've faced the hardest part. Now turn what you've learned into something sustainable — a way to navigate the tension between spoiling and supporting without undermining parents not just today, but every time this situation returns.
