In today’s episode, Quinn addresses the subtle pressure many parents feel to make their children “great” in something be it academics, sports or another extracurricular activity. Because while most parents wouldn’t say anyone is directly telling them to do this, they can admit they feel the outside influence to prepare their child to excel more than generations in the past.

In the episode, Quinn teaches parents how to keep a balanced perspective and also encourages to be mindful of:

1. Two questions to ask yourself when feeling the pressure that your child needs to be doing big things
2. Times when you might be taking it too far in the expectations you have of them
3. A powerful connection time that can refocus your goals in parenting

Mind Renewal Tip:
If this won’t be relevant to you in ten years, it shouldn’t be something that keeps you up at night.

Scripture Renewal Tip:
“You don’t get wormy apples off a healthy tree, nor good apples off a diseased tree. The health of the apple tells the health of the tree. You must begin with your own life-giving lives. It’s who you are, not what you say and do, that counts. Your true being brims over into true words and deeds.
