"My kid is nothing like me."

It’s a thought many parents have—but rarely say out loud. We all carry quiet expectations that our kids will reflect us in some way: our values, our temperament, maybe even our path.

So what happens when they don’t?

Dr. Becky sits down with Dr. Andrew Solomon, author of Far from the Tree, to explore what it brings up for us when our kids are different from us—and how acceptance and curiosity can help us grow while deepening our connection with them.

Today’s episode is also brought to you by Sittercity. We talk a lot about support at Good Inside—emotional support, community, not having to figure out parenting on your own. Sometimes, you also need logistical support. Like, someone to watch your kid so you can make that meeting, run those errands, or finally catch up with a friend. That’s where Sittercity can be a really helpful tool. Their platform gives you a trusted way to find sitters who are kind, experienced, and show up when you need them. You can read reviews from other parents, message sitters directly, and set up interviews—all in one spot. If you’ve been meaning to find a sitter but didn’t know where to begin, this is going to make it feel a whole lot easier. Go to Sittercity.com and use the code “goodinside" for 25% off the annual or quarterly premium subscription plans.
