My Kid Wants to Be Famous
The majority of kids today say they want to be influencers. What happens when that shows up in your own home?
When your child isn’t just playing or performing… but actively trying to be seen, followed, and validated online?
In this episode, a mom of a 10-year-old shares a tension so many parents feel but don’t always say out loud:
I’m proud of her confidence… and I’m scared of what she’s chasing.
Dr. Sheryl unpacks what’s really driving this desire to be “famous,” why it makes so much sense developmentally, and how to respond without shutting your child down — or leaving them unprotected.
