Approach the question of capability with awareness and connection. Look at your own awareness of what they're capable of or struggling with. You may be doing too much, leaving you unaware of what they can truly do. Do mini-experiments when they want to do things, and collect data. Help them have an opportunity to succeed or fail. Foster connection by not being critical or having huge expectations. We look at simple ways you can help your Loved One increase their own awareness.
