Impact 360 Institute

How can we avoid both overprotection and underprotection as we parent and lead Gen Z?Are the parents of Gen Z more overprotective or underprotective? Studies say...both. In our recent study with Barna, we found that the parents of Gen Z are often simultaneously overinvolved and too detached. So how do we find the middle ground for providing support for Gen Z that is both engaged and appropriately connected?This week on the podcast Jonathan sits down with Dr. Stephanie Shackelford, author of the chapter "Gen Z's Overprotective, Unprotective Parents" in the brand new book Know. Be. Live. : a 360˚ Approach to Discipleship in a Post-Christian Era. Join us this week as we talk about traits of overprotective and underprotective parents, the influence of media and technology and the importance of a parent's presence in it, and the way forward from double-mindedness to a single focus.Through her work as a writer, researcher, and coach, Dr. Stephanie Shackelford helps people identify and take hold of their purpose.
