00:00 🤝 Codependency and people pleasing often obscure the line between helping and enabling.
00:25 🛡️ Helping offers support without taking over, while too much help can deprive someone of their agency and emotionally drain the helper.
00:53 📚 A common example of enabling is a parent doing a child's homework, which prevents the child from learning problem-solving skills.
01:28 💼 Enabling can result in robbing the child of experiences needed to strengthen their emotional muscles and develop self-confidence.
02:22 💪 It's important to allow children to face challenges to build resilience and learn the value of effort.
03:05 🚫 Enabling someone deprives them of the growth experiences they need to prepare for life's challenges.
