Helping our kids accomplish their goals is fundamental to creating a self-directed learning environment, but it's a more nuanced topic than it first appears. It's all well and good to plan for helping our kids along their learning process, but what about when they hit those inevitable road blocks? To what degree should a parent in a self-directed learning environment push when our kids seem to be losing interest? Is it our job to help kids realize their full potential in any given area? And what about other things that our kids want, but might not be able to vocalize - like working on their tempers, or sleeping over a friend's house? James and Taylor divide our kids' goals into three separate buckets, and do their best to break down how they are currently approaching growth for each of them. Enjoy!
