Are you helping your child… or accidentally holding them back?

Every time you jump in to solve a problem your child could almost handle, you're switching off the neural pathways they need to become independent, resilient, and confident. In this video, I break down the science behind Scaffolding vs. Hovering parenting—and show you exactly how to support your child's growth without doing everything for them.

🧠 What You'll Learn:
Why struggle is essential for brain development
The Zone of Proximal Development (Vygotsky's parenting framework)
5 practical techniques to shift from hovering to scaffolding
How to validate emotions while building problem-solving skills

📚 SCIENCE BEHIND THIS VIDEO:
This approach is based on Lev Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development—a concept that shows how children learn best when challenged just beyond their current ability, with temporary support that fades as they grow.
