Jerry Seinfeld Reveals the “Poisonous Ps” of Parenting
Jerry Seinfed, married to wife Jessica for more than 10 years (that’s two centuries in Hollywood time), has a theory on detrimental parenting practices that he calls the “poisonous Ps” and there are three of them. He admits he can be guilty of these mistakes from time to time with his three children: Sascha, 9, Julian Kal, 6 ½, and Shepherd Kellen, 4 ½. So what are these parenting pitfalls to avoid?
1) Too much praise: The “good job!” for doing nothing club.
2) Not allowing children to problem solve: By solving kids’ problems for them, we rob them of this crucial ability they’ll need as adults.
3) Giving children too much pleasure: Jerry thinks this is often done out of guilt because children don’t have the innocent childhood past generations enjoyed.
