Sometimes it’s hard to stick to what you want to do,” she added. “Because maybe there is an easier way, or you feel so bad, you feel like a mean parent and you just want to give your kids what they want. But when we step back and look, we have to realize that this is a way that we are going to shape them throughout their youth. And then they get to choose what they want when they become adults. »
