## Resource

In today's episode Dr. Kathy explores the idea of Fawning, when a child seems agreeable but is actually suppressing opinions, ideas, and insight because he or she doesn't want to offend or cause problems. Co-host Wayne Stender pushes Dr. Kathy to help us consider when kids might be fawning and when they might legitimately don't have something to add to conversation or situations. It's a great discussion to give perspective on awakening courage in your child, especially if they are naturally a peacemaker or quiet.
