Are kids in Germany really more independent?

Do kids in Germany show more personal responsibility than children in other countries? We dive into the daily lives of Germany’s 8.5 million families with underage children, exploring what German parents might be doing differently. How do they encourage independence and responsibility in their kids? And could young parents in other countries learn a thing or two from them? In this video, two German families open up about their daily routines between daycare, school, and free time, sharing the values they prioritize, the tasks they delegate, and how they empower their children to take charge. Join us for an inside look into family life and parenting in Germany!
