While we know that your confidence doesn't come from friends, can they at least help you feel more confident through strong, consistent relationships?

Where does confidence come from? It seems clear that it begins in childhood, but how does that process take place? In this clip, Destiny and I begin to tackle this big question.

When you tell your child "no," should that be a hard commitment, or should it have room to change? Particularly with toddlers, this can be an important decision. In this dialogue, Neil and I discuss our philosophy on the firm "no."

We always hear that parents should be a "united front" - but is it okay for there to be some variation between them that allows for discussion and even negotiating?

Spoiling a child is often well-intentioned. It can be hard for a loving parent who knows how good it feels to be provided for to realize that their doting can be a disservice to their child.

It can be really difficult to resist helping your child when she is struggling - yet kids learn the necessary skill of independence when their kids let them solve their own problems.

Many of the dads I know are more likely to roughhouse with their child than their partner. In this clip, Neil and I discuss what it's like to be the higher-risk parent.
