The Role of Fear in Parenting
The main challenge parents face is the fear of whether their child will be okay. This fear stems from their own pervasive sense of not being okay. Parents often live with anxiety, feeling responsible for their child's well-being and future. This fear is rooted in a delusion that they can control all aspects of their child's life. The key to alleviating this fear is understanding and accepting the impermanence of life, including the inevitability of death. By freeing themselves from the illusion of control and accepting the transient nature of existence, parents can live more fully in the present moment and release their anxiety.
