In episode 1 of Back To School Stress, Joey and Bill focused on stress that students often carry and how parents can wade into their child's lives and support them. Here, in episode 2, Joey and Bill turn the focus toward parents. Often parents think my child already has enough to deal with, but in actuality children need to see healthy emotional honesty from their parents. Kids learn more from modeling emotionally healthy behavior than any conversation you will ever have with them.

In episode 1 of our Back To School Stress, Joey and Bill discuss the challenge for everyone in the family as school ramps back up. There is a lot of excitement, but often under all that excitement families are carrying invisible stress. The challenge is that both kids and parents experience stress, but often neither knows how to talk about it.

Join Joey and Bill as they continue the Summer Mental Health Series talking about The Power of Play. Summer often reminds us of something we lose as adults: the ability to simply have fun. We treat fun like a reward after all the work is finished, but God actually designed joy, laughter, play, and recreation to restore our minds, strengthen our relationships, and improve our emotional and spiritual health. Fun isn't childish - it's part of living a healthy, balanced life.
