You Can Trust Your Kids, Here’s Why

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

Hey there, amazing parents! Ever wondered if you could truly trust your child's moral compass, especially when they seem to make those tiny, questionable decisions? Today we're diving into a profound exploration of why trusting our little ones is the key to unlocking a beautiful parent-child relationship.


Many believe that children are too young to understand the difference between right and wrong. However, did you know that by the age of two, they have already learned a significant amount about morality from observing us? And here's the catch - what if the key to nurturing good behavior in our children isn't constant correction, but rather unwavering trust? If you've ever doubted your child's inherent goodness, this episode is an invitation to see them in the best possible light. Trust your child, and they will trust you in return.
