    >The study, published on November 21 in the journal Child Development, found that framing the task of getting dressed as a chance for preschool-aged children to learn reduced parental intervention by about 50%.

    >“When an adult steps in and completes a task for a young child, it can deprive the child of an opportunity to learn how to complete the task by themselves, which potentially harms their ability to develop self-efficacy, autonomy, and other important life skills,” said lead author Reut Shachnai, a graduate student in Yale’s Department of Psychology. “Our findings suggest that framing everyday tasks as learning opportunities can significantly reduce overparenting, and in turn boost children’s independence, persistence, and resilience.”

  2. I would really like to invite these scientists to a normal family day with my kids getting ready for anything, as a learning opportunity. You know they can do it on their own, but they yell at you and play stupid just to get your full attention. I intervene to get out in time and stay mentally stable.
