Recently, my thoughts have been focused on ways to challenge my daughter’s talents.
Her standout qualities are a strong will and exceptional speech. She’s 3 years old.
Were she older, I might give her a YouTube channel. I imagine something like DJ Vlad interviews where I sit off-screen and ask her tough questions.
Wait! I can do exactly that
Maybe she is already at an age to play that game.
It would hone her communication skills — especially of self-expression — and maybe give her fire a more constructive outlet than defiance or rebellion. (I believe at the core of rebellious behavior at any age is an imbalance between a person’s strong need to understand actions/decisions imposed on them and their inability to understand or their perceiving the answers/reasons being withheld from them. This is something I want to write about more.)
I think we’ll just save the videos in a vault instead of YouTube for now.
