Jody Hill calls it being their champion, not their savior.
As parents, it's tempting to step in.
Fix the problem.
Remove the obstacle.
Make the difficult thing easier.
But sometimes loving our kids means resisting the urge to rescue them and instead saying:
“I believe in you. You can do this. I'm right here.”
Because confidence isn't only built by hearing that we're capable.
It's built by actually doing the thing we weren't sure we could do.
That's the heart behind Jody's approach: speak life into your children, empower them, and help them grow into the fullness of who God created them to be. 💛
Champion them. Encourage them. Walk beside them. But give them room to grow.
