About

Have you ever watched a baby cry and thought to yourself, "I can't belive that baby is crying! They're going to grow into an adult that whines and cries until people give them what they want." No? Then why do we do that with our teenagers? In today's episode we talk about how most of the things our children- especially teens- do is completely normal, and actually means that they are growing and developing right on schedule! And that means it's not our job to control every aspect of their lives. Phew! Thank goodness for that right? Instead, let's learn how to hold onto those relationships, so that when they are ready for some advice and direction, we'll be right there waiting with open arms.
