Raising Capable Kids! Part 2
This week on In the Middle With You, Tammy Kuku and Gaia Altshuler continue our conversation on capability and dive deeper into what it looks like for middle school students to become increasingly capable and confident. We explore the value of taking healthy risks, doing hard and uncomfortable things, and learning through reflection. We also give you a behind-the-scenes look at how we’re intentionally building capability in our students at Oaks Christian and why giving students opportunities to struggle, try, reflect, and try again is such an important part of their growth. Join us for another week of insight, encouragement, and practical tools as we talk about what’s happening in the life of your middle school student.

Raising Capable Kids! Part 1
This week on In The Middle With You, Gaia Altshuler and Tammy Kuku invite you into a two-part series on capability. What does it really mean for our kids to be capable? Why is capability such an important part of raising healthy, confident middle schoolers? We’re unpacking the connection between capability and confidence, and exploring how giving our teens opportunities to try, struggle, problem-solve, and grow can shape the way they see themselves. With so many voices, opinions, and messages surrounding parenting today, our hope is that this conversation feels both tangible and encouraging as you navigate the middle school years. Join us as we talk about practical ways we can help our kids build confidence by discovering what they are truly capable of.
