AMBITION : When we are ambitious for our kids are we actually ambitious for ourselves?
Listen now
Description
How would YOU feel if your child didn’t have the ambition YOU had - or the ambition you FEEL they need to have in order to succeed? Is ambition in your kids about academic success, financial success, or emotional happiness? At what point does AMBITION morph into selfishness and competitiveness and by extension a potential sense of failure! Are PUSHY PARENTS ambitious for their kids or for themselves? Mark & Nadia attack AMBITION from all angles - and also consider whether they’ve perhaps been over-ambitious as parents - and maybe failed! Find out answers to these questions and many more in this episode of Confessions of A Modern Parent.  They take questions and suggestions from listeners on their experiences in parenting roles.  If you have a parenting question or suggestion for Mark or Nadia, you can get in touch at: Twitter @mark_adderley
