About this episode
As parents, we love our children deeply, and naturally, we want the best for them. But, our expectations can sometimes convey a pursuit of perfection, which is overwhelming for our kids. In this show, Mark draws from his personal experiences and the struggles of colleagues to illustrate how perfectionism can inadvertently place immense pressure on teens, skewing their perceptions of love and acceptance. He advises parents to foster genuine relationships and understanding, ultimately guiding teens to find comfort in their own imperfections. Don't miss this episode!
