In the last episode, Leslie interviewed Langley Korepanova, who in the midst of several pieces of wisdom shared a story in which she was at first off-put and offended by a mom who thought differently than her. After consideration, however, Langley came to see the other woman's difference as a gift and strength in the lives of our children.
If you ever struggle to embrace different viewpoints in your community of people helping you raise your kiddos, this episode will I hope encourage you to consider God's intention in creating so many different people with so many different viewpoints. To quote the classic cliche–it truly takes a village to raise a child. But, will we embrace the village we're given, or will we hoard the raising of our children in fear that a different viewpoint or approach might be more harmful than helpful?
