The perils of pathway parenting
How many AP classes should your student take? How many colleges should they apply to? How do we find the right college or the right job? Parents have big questions without a lot of answers. Gripped by a fear of getting left behind in an increasingly competitive world, parents feel pressured to push their kids to their limits to be “successful” (and manage their mental health at the same time). It’s time to let go of pathway parenting. It’s time for a new way.
Embrace True North Parenting
Thankfully there is a better way to parent. One that makes your child’s educational experience more fulfilling and meaningful. We call this True North parenting: rather than pushing your student on a path they are “supposed” to take, help them find their own way. In doing so, you are not only setting them up to succeed, but strengthening your relationship with them as well.
I was able to reflect on my goals before starting college and how I want to pursue them going forward. I realized that my idea of success is no longer only determined by my grades but also by my involvement outside of school and my mental health.
