Jesse and I are talking about “slacker parenting” this week on the podcast. This term might seem a bit odd or like the opposite of the kind of parent you’d want to be, but hear us out… because it’s not exactly what it sounds like!

I recently read a pre-release copy of Alli Worthington’s upcoming book Remaining You While Raising Them and that’s where I got the phrase from. Alli talks about how kids are often much more capable than we think they are. What would it look like for us to give them more opportunities to be in charge of their own responsibilities — such as getting up and getting ready to leave for school, making their own lunches, managing their own homework, etc.

I so agreed with what she jokingly called “slacker parenting” because it’s about raising our kids to be adults, to take ownership of their life and decisions, and to learn personal responsibility from a young age.

In this episode, we talk more about what this has looked like in our home, how it frees us up to enjoy our kids more, why it’s a gift we give our kids, and how it helps prepare them more for life and their future.
