Key Takeaways
Understanding Parents as Humans: Realize that our parents, much like ourselves, are not perfect. They have their own insecurities, fears, and doubts, and acknowledging this can deepen our relationship with them.
Empathy Over Criticism: Approach conversations with your parents with empathy and curiosity. Asking questions to understand their perspectives can be more enlightening than rushing to judge or fix their issues. –
