Celebrate individuality, create opportunities for cooperation, and stay calm and in control
Being mindful of who you are as a parent not only benefits your child, but also you
Factors like genetics and nutrition, and even disease and medication, can affect height
Listen to your child to help them identify their fear and name it, but don’t reinforce it
The answer comes down to your child’s maturity
It’s important to let your child learn and grow from their mistakes and missteps, but you can still be there along the way to encourage and support them
