Summary
In this conversation, Wem and Lewis discuss the concept of encouragement and its potential negative effects. They explore the idea that sometimes encouragement can be seen as ableism, as it may push individuals beyond their limits and lead to burnout or shutdown. They discuss the importance of listening to people's boundaries and needs, especially children, and not pressuring them to do more than they are capable of. They also touch on the role of caregiver attunement in providing appropriate support and opportunities for growth. The conversation highlights the need for nuance in offering encouragement and the importance of considering power dynamics and hierarchy in adult-child relationships.
