Recognizing the Corruption of Power in Parenting

Parenting comes with a certain level of authority and power that, if not carefully managed, can lead to overbearing and controlling behavior. This power dynamic can cause parents to overlook their children's needs and desires, leading to resentment. It is important to remember that despite having more experience and knowledge, parents should not dismiss the evolving nature of their children's personalities and development.
