Main Ideas

  • The idea that parents should allow children to be independent so they can grow and learn from their own mistakes.
  • The concept of «lazy parenting», which suggests that parents should not overprotect their children but instead give them freedom and the opportunity to make decisions.
  • The theory of the importance of trust between parents and children, which helps children feel confident and secure in the world around them.
  • An approach that emphasizes that children should learn to solve problems on their own rather than relying on constant adult assistance.
  • The idea that excessive care can lead to dependency and insecurity in children, whereas freedom and support promote the development of independence and responsibility.
