One of the most fun things about parenting is that you’re raising your future best friends! Today Jamie and Lisa discuss the complexities of parenting our kids and what it looks like to be their friend. Lisa shares great insight on how parenting and being a friend isn’t necessarily a one time shift, but instead a percentage of different seasons. Jamie challenges us to be realistic in our expectations and not to put pressure on our kids to be our friend! 

Lysa TerKurst, best-selling author, teacher, and mother to five adult children shares with us feedback from her children on how to respect your adult children’s boundaries, while also being a present friend. 

This episode is a challenging one as we take a hard look at our own desires and intentions and learn how to balance parenting and friendship! Thanks for listening and share with a friend!
