- How Coddling Kids Is Ruining Their Future - ‘Phil In The Blanks’ Podcast
Dr. Phil speaks with psychologist and licensed clinical social worker Dr. Deena Manion about how coddling the younger generation is at odds with the general teachings of psychology.
“Protecting college kids from the real world is not the way to go,” says Dr. Manion. “And it starts at that young age where we're teaching them everybody's a winner.”

Great insight on preparing kids to deal with life issues. I agree with Dr Phil that exposing kids to different situations, experiences will help them cope with different events and will be more prepared, knowledgeable and stronger to face difficult situations when they arise. I was raised during late fifties where I handled things as they came up, and was on the streets at 6 yrs old. My brother had polio since 2 yrs old, he's two yrs older than me. We just arrived from Mexico. We were both in same public school, and some boys would bully him because he was on crutches. I stood up to them because he couldn't defend himself. I couldn't show fear because then they could escalate the bullying, I was more afraid they would hurt him. For some reason, they left him alone. I figured when got older that bullies are just weak cowards, and don't expect to be challenged. So if you stand up to them, they cannot control you and will move on to next victim.
I raised 4 sons and I agree with all of this discussion. You have to teach them how to get by in a tough world.
If you are afraid of elevators . Maybe get as close to one as you can and just stare at it and do that until you are bored. Then continue to do that every day. Eventually you will no longer be afraid of the elevator. It's hard to be afraid of something that becomes boring.
Shoo Dr Phil your podcasts are honestly much needed and eye opening. We need to start getting more informed as our society has become overly sensitive and we vilify each other. It is getting out of hand. Everything has now become a trigger to a point where one is not comfortable voicing their opinions. Also mob mentality has mad things worse.
I just discovered your podcasts Dr Phil. This is a great teaching for me as a mother of a 6 year old boy who is very very sensitive! Thank you.
With Love from South Africa.
I’m gonna bounce off the word “ offended” You are absolutely correct 1000%. You can’t speak without somebody saying they are offended! That younger generation at work don’t demand that they work either or expect them to get their job done because they will be offended! I don’t understand at all as to how much coddling we really do in life today here in 2024! Are there things that offend me or hurt my feelings, HELL yes there is! But because of my age, I’m not supposed to feel that way! As far as the drug situation 1000%, no 2000% agree with we should be educating our children about the drug situation because to them it’s no big deal! Today, here in 2024 my oldest is sitting in a prison in Texas Because of drugs and stupidity! Although the Texas prison system has not helped him nor prepared him to come out of the system to live as the 30-year-old that he is today that when he went in, he was in his mid-20s he’s practically grown up in the system. He was right, beaten, boiling water poured on, so they burning within less than six months of being incarcerated into.TDCJ! Because he snitched on a gang that he thought he wanted to be in they start him down to 98 pounds so with all of that and this was the beginning of a 12 year Senate so now he is incarcerated as a protective custody inmate but yet it’s not the prisoners that he has to worry about now other inmates, it’s the guards And the system and because of what he’s encountered because the personnel think they’re entitled, I don’t know he has reacted and caused more problems for himself so what did the system teach him? My concern isn’t 2025 late 2025 He will be released how long before he chooses to turn back to his old ways and they will put him back in prison because he does not know how to cope in the real world! 1) because of his choices and his actions in prison he all 12 years and he has been in solitary confinement or what they call protective custody because of the rape , so there was no opportunity for him to earn the right to do a job outside his jail cell. He is allowed one hour a day and that is providing that they have enough personnel he can either go take a shower or he can go outside. Other than that, he can. 2) when he does get out, even though he has served all of his time I have been informed that if he comes to my house.(home) I will have police and probation officers that come to my house to make sure that it is fit and will have an inspection before he’s released to come here. Unfortunately, as a mother, it makes me want to say you can’t come to my home because I don’t want the disruption. I don’t want to be considered somebody that is not trustworthy. I don’t know where the happy medium is because I struggle every day with both of my children. I was raised by both of my parents, I did not get into trouble where I landed in jail, or had to do probation, or serve time! how do I cope? How did they cope?
You’re so right with this! Spot on!! I could go on and on. I’m lucky enough to have gone to a university that isn’t like those examples you talked about. And I just graduated in May so very fresh. I was taught to be thoughtful and critically thinking. It’s not good to use trauma, I’m gonna kill myself, etc. All those phrases being used when it’s not actually what is happening isn’t good. She was right it desensitizes those words. I get what you’re saying! There’s times where being offended and calling it out is justified such as racism, stuff like that. But there’s so many things that are offensive and it’s like walking on eggshells all the time. It’s not healthy for us to live like this. Thank you for this podcast!
This coddling of children has gotten out of hand. It robs them of the opportunity to accomplish age appropriate skills on their own. They need to learn life skills and solve problems so that when they become adults they will be able to cope in our society.
Exposure therapy might have the answer about being triggered. What if instead of not saying words that trigger us when someone feels triggered. We teach each other to say I am feeling triggered I am going to need you to help me through this. Then! This is an insane twist! We educate people how to help people work through the trauma and recognize their triggers eventually removing the trauma they live caged up in and living happier and more fulfilling lives and get back to the connection people use to have.
i was surprised to see Dr Mannion on her cell phone during their conversation... This really irritated me after a while...
Me tooooo
Man I’m so glad I’m a gen X I grew up basically raising myself my parents were never home and when they were home all they wanted to know was if all my homework was done and my chores were completed ✔️ ate dinner and went to bed and started all over again had so much freedom out all day til the street lights came on no wonder these kids today can’t think for themselves it’s pathetic and sad 😔 I couldn’t imagine growing up in today’s society no way
You're smart. My mom is gen x and hated growing up that way, so she helicoptered. Anyway, my mom's childhood sounded beautiful. She lived in the country and rode her horse around the massive property with her loyal dog running beside them. I'll never know what her problem with that was.
Southerners always ask where someone was born or where they're from as a conversation opener, it's part of OUR culture. Maybe ALL students should be required to read and discuss the Deborah Tannen books, "That's not what I meant" and "You just don't Understand" in their 'first' year of high school and repeat in college (not freshman year, but 'first' year). If any word is going to be banned, it should definitely be the word >>> 'triggered' !!!
I do not like the participation awards at all!! It’s not beneficial for anyone in the long run!
I don't live in the states, but isn't this a lot about free speech (a 'double edged sword') at the core?
