Why are some parents overprotective? How do you cope with trauma in a healthy way?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are diving into the big ol’ blue with Finding Nemo. They discuss Marlin’s parenting and the differences between helicopter parenting and healthy parenting. Jonathan talks about Marlin’s trauma and how it shapes his relationship with Nemo. Alan explains why Finding Nemo is another Pixar Perfect Picture and why it's important to let his kids fail. Is anyone surprised that Alan cries?
