In a video shared to Facebook on Monday, Jo Frost (best known as the parenting expert and face behind the reality show Supernanny and Nanny on Tour) offered a bit of tough love to parents based on her concerns about what she’s seeing more and more with clients.
Her worry? The (unintentional) ways that parents might be keeping their kids from cultivating independence.
“I’m going to say something that might make you uncomfortable, so sit tight: We are slowly disabling our children, and I don’t say that lightly. I say that because I work with families continuously every day and I’m seeing a pattern that’s growing: children who are capable but not being taught,” she said.
