#197 Michaeleen Doucleff: The 4 Biggest Mistakes Parents Make
The Knowledge Project with Shane Parrish
Exploring the balance between autonomy and structure in parenting children

This balance can manifest in decisions like letting children manage their own time or implementing some structure without giving direct instructions. Parents need to assess their children's capabilities to determine the level of autonomy or structure needed.
