In this episode, we hear from a mom concerned about her son’s desire to be a professional YouTuber. We discuss how situations like this can be opportunities and the power of starting conversations with our kids with a mindset of “Yes, and.”
Here’s the question:
I have a son who is very intelligent, creative, capable. He can do anything he sets his mind to do. And when I ask him what he wants to do when he grows up, he says he wants to be a famous YouTuber. Now, I’m in a conundrum because I want him to believe he can pursue his own profession and walk his own path and take his own journey. I also wonder what the point of being a YouTuber is. And also, how do Youtubers contribute to society? So my question is how do I talk to him so we can have a conversation about making good and fulfilling choices and things that will contribute, but at the same time letting him know that he can make his own choices and it’s not what I dictate and it’s not what I tell him he has to do, because it’s not my life, it will be his life.
