In the second part of our discussion on entitlement, Andrew and Caroline tackle some of the most challenging—but crucial—aspects of parenting. This week, we explore:

• Why not rescuing your kids is an essential step toward fostering resilience.
• The importance of letting your kids sit with big emotions (and why it’s okay if it feels uncomfortable).
• How to embrace being "unpopular" as a parent—and why it’s sometimes necessary for your child’s growth.

Parenting isn’t always about being liked—it’s about raising children who are confident, responsible, and emotionally strong.
