Raising teens can sometimes feel like a battle of wills. In this episode, Jamie seeks parenting advice from Heather after a blowup with her son over dirty dishes. For our kids, summer doesn’t have a strict schedule, resulting in a lot of aimless time. Left to their own devices, they would probably watch TV and eat candy all day. Since they don’t understand the full perspective, we often have to make our kids do things they don’t want to do. It’s okay to empathize, but how do we draw a line in the sand?

Join us for a deep dive into parenting, family yoga gone wrong, and a book recommendation! Let’s survive summer together in the fourth episode of our mini-series called Surviving Summer.
