#53: If you're worried about your child falling behind, then...

There you are, standing at the front door, shoes in hand, backpack slung, and your 8-year-old says, “I’ll be there in a minute!” But 1 minute later, they’re not there. And suddenly, you're wondering: What’s wrong with them? Or… is it me?In this revealing episode, we unravel the myth of cognitive timelines—and what truly makes a child “ready.” Forget checklists and charts. We explore how traditional development theories fail our kids and why values like responsibility, accountability, and dependability are the real milestones that matter.Through Priya's RADaR framework, we shift the spotlight from forced progress to authentic growth. From recognizing body signals to becoming the kind of sibling, friend—or future adult—they actually want to be.If you've ever worried your kid isn’t “there yet,” this is your wake-up call. They’re not behind.They’re becoming.---------------------------- Do you have some questions, stories or experiences you hope could be featured on the podcast?
