Are we coddling our youth into a state of emotional fragility?
This is my question in today's episode; I explore the effects of 'safetyism' and the well intentioned but potentially harmful trend of creating 'safe spaces' and focusing too heavily on feelings. I scrutinise the rise of unearned praise and its link to narcissism, and explain how competition is an essential ingredient for instilling resilience and the capacity to deal with failure.
This episode isn't just a critique; it's the beginnings of a road map for those determined to equip the younger generation with the tools they need to navigate an imperfect world with confidence and independence.
The age old question "where is the balance between keeping children safe but also fostering strength and resilience"? Most parents are absolutely doing the best they can with what they know, it's really tough being a parent and parents are judged all the time. I believe my generation, like all generations have got some stuff right and some stuff very wrong. This has been an extremely challenging time with the world changing so fast in the last 10 years that parents and children have been confronted with things that we have never had to deal with before.
Join me in beginning this important discussion, not to lay blame on each other but to have healthy open dialogue and come up with solutions. The youth of today and their parents really need help.
