We’re raising emotionally fragile children, and it starts with how we parent.
In this paradigm-shifting episode, parenting coach and NLP practitioner Shweta Gandhi breaks down the real reasons children today struggle with tantrums, frustration, screen addiction, and self-worth – and how modern parenting culture is quietly sabotaging their emotional growth.
From over-parenting and nanny guilt to nervous system borrowing, subconscious programming, and the myth of “good boy” praise – this episode is a masterclass in raising emotionally strong, self-aware, and resilient kids in a hyper-digital world.
We decode:
Why “gentle parenting” isn’t enough, and when it backfires
What tantrums actually mean, and how to respond without losing it
How your tone, words, and praise shape your child’s inner voice
Why over-comforting weakens a child’s discomfort tolerance
The hidden harm of constant approval and identity-based compliments
What to do if your child is more attached to the nanny
The father’s role in shaping boys vs. girls, and why it’s everything
How routines create predictability, and reduce anxiety in children
The one mindset shift that allows parents to be ambitious without guilt
If you've ever wondered whether you're doing “enough” as a parent – or maybe doing too much – this episode will challenge your thinking and empower you to raise children who can feel deeply, regulate wisely, and grow up emotionally secure.
