I AM CONFIDENT AND COMPETENT

“The moment you doubt whether you can fly, you cease forever to be able to do it.” – J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan

Synopsis:
Are your children less confident than you would like them to be? Are you keen to learn how to hit the sweet spot of providing appropriate support and protection on the one hand and adequate independence to foster confidence and competence on the other?
