What does needs-oriented and empowering parenting look like? How can we support children so that they feel secure and attached (
) while also becoming independent and competent in social interactions? How can we support our children's self-regulation and emotional maturation (
)? And how can we improve cooperation and deal with conflicts of autonomy more effectively?
In his lecture, pediatrician Herbert Renz-Polster shows that, with regard to child development, children need both: plenty of freedom and plenty of guidance. Because flying is a matter of practice and has to do with trust. It also has to do with children's self-confidence that they can achieve a lot, even if we are not always there for them. In this way, the early years can become real years of growth for children and the whole family.
