''LET THEM'' - the most hardest decision moms make

Loading player...
On Moms Moment, Carol asked a question that struck a chord with moms everywhere: What's something you had to let your child do on their own, even when every instinct told you to step in and help? And looking back, are you grateful you did?
What followed was an emotional conversation filled with honest stories, tough parenting moments, and a few tears. Moms shared what it was like to stand back and watch their children make mistakes, face disappointment, fall down, and find the strength to get back up.
Because sometimes the hardest words in parenting are simply: "Let them."
Let them fail. Let them struggle. Let them figure it out. Let them grow.
As heartbreaking as it can be in the moment, many moms agreed that some of life's most important lessons are the ones our children learn for themselves.
