Episode 57 - A Sympathetic Ear

Blame The System

In this last part (four, for those keeping score) of the Karen Lock Kolp interview, we discuss ways to make the system and rules the bad guy.  This frees us up as parents to simply shower our children with love, lend a sympathetic ear, and teach them that consequences are inevitable.  We continue our look at accepting blame for our miss-queues and teaching our children about forgiveness.  We wrap it all up with some experiences in dual-enrollment programs and how those can help kids get a good start on the next phase of their life.
