Stop It! Caregiver Behaviors That Impede Progress

Parents and caregivers!
How many of us are doing things for our children or loved ones
with disabilities that we really shouldn’t continue to do? Things
that could easily become barriers to independent living models.
Things that may even make our person more vulnerable than
necessary.

There’s no doubt that we do these things out of love, maybe
sprinkled with a little bit of guilt and a whole lot of just plain
survival…but regardless, our overcompensation and natural
instincts to protect for a lifetime are counterproductive.

Helping our loved one reach their highest level of independence
and autonomy they can reach takes courage, vulnerability, and
planning on our part, and yet, preparing those we love for life
without us is the final and most important gift we can give them.
