Undivided Episode 22 - Anxiety & Parenting

Undivided is a podcast series focused on the barriers that our society has constructed to keep people apart or keep people feeling hopeless. The goal of the show is to lift people up and inspire people to live in unity, harmony, and peace.

My next episode will look at the powerful force of anxiety in parenting. The pressures of society can make parents today very overprotective of their children in a way that could impact the child and their ability to cope with situations during their life. This type of anxiety can cause division within families and within the two parent unit of a child.

However, at the same time, some parents believe that their actions in protecting their child are for the good of the child. Furthermore, there are parents who believe that their style of parenting has little to no effect on their children and should not impact them as they grow into adulthood.
