The Impact of Let Grow School Initiatives on Parental Anxiety

Let Grow's school initiatives aim to reduce parental anxiety by encouraging children to complete tasks independently, without direct parental supervision. By assigning monthly homework tasks for children to do something new on their own, Let Grow challenges parents to let go and see the competence of their children. This intervention helps parents realize that their children are capable of managing tasks without constant supervision, leading to a sense of relief from the anxiety associated with overprotective parenting. The program fosters a sense of community among parents as they support each other through the process of letting go and allowing their children to explore their capabilities independently.
