IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson
“Success” Looks Different for Every Family with Glennon Doyle and Abby Wambach

It was at that point I realized wherever my family is, I could feel home. And when I think about Shira's question, I would hope that she would get from us here today that it doesn't matter where you live.

And the point I want to get to is that Shira and her husband have to be more empathetic to themselves. I think they're being hard on themselves and understanding that, hey, it's up to you, too. And you may not know what the answers are.

Yeah. But I think people have to be careful not to parent out of guilt. That's right. And what I worry about, or I would caution Shira, is to, when you do make that choice, whatever the choice is, don't parent them like you've hurt their feelings. Because sometimes people overcompensate for choices that they feel bad about. That's the disservice to kids. It's not moving them.

It's not that they can't see their grandmother or they live in a city or an apartment or don't have a yard. Kids respond to their situations based on how you act. That's right. I mean, Barack was president of the United States. And I could have felt sorry for my girls, right? It's like, oh my God, look what we did to you. And And I sort of went the opposite direction.

It's like, this isn't about you. We just happen to live in this house. It's your father's job. Every father has a job, you know. So just get on with it. Yep, you got Secret Service. I'm not going to poor thing you to death. It's odd, but it's what you have. And I think parents, we have to be careful not to push our guilt into our parenting. Because that can mess your kid up.
