Summary
Raising independent kids doesn’t mean removing structure — it means using it wisely. In this episode, I’m joined by Kristina Heagh-Avritt , founder of Vibrant Family Education and co-host of the Bringing Education Home podcast. With over 30 years of experience working with families, Kristina shares how parents can create enough structure to guide progress, while still giving kids the space they need to take responsibility and ownership. If you want to raise confident, independent kids without swinging to extremes, this episode is for you. *Jump start your family’s learning fun and curiosity with the Love of Learning Launch Pad!
