Parents of the Year
We were never given a manual on how to parent. It is easy to get overwhelmed to know the right thing to do. There is so much contradictory information out there and everyone has their own advice. Parenting is a rewarding but messy, confusing, infuriating, guilt-inducing, and overwhelming journey. While it's easy to get lost, Andrew Stewart, a real dad, and Dr. Caroline Buzanko, a real mom, child psychologist, and parenting expert (who also happens to be married to Andrew) will help you get back on track. In each episode, Andrew and Caroline have open and honest chats about everything parenting. Join them in honesty, laughter, and tears (Caroline is a bit of a cry baby) as they help you navigate this journey of parenting. And, every so often, you may get some gems of expert advice. Our goal is to make your parenting journey less stressful, more forgiving, and more awesome. Please join us every Wednesday for new episodes of Parenting of the Year.
Parents of the Year
138. Is your parenting helping or hindering your child's growth?
In this episode of Parents of the Year, Andrew and Caroline dive into the all-too-common struggle of over-parenting.
From parents attending university orientations to learn how to "manage" their adult children, to navigating the fine line between guiding and helicoptering, they explore how to foster real independence.
Along the way, they share practical tips, personal stories, and laugh-out-loud moments—like accidentally turning a child’s work into mom’s handiwork.
Tune in to this candid conversation on letting go, supporting from the sidelines, and helping kids build their own lives.
