Today I answer a question from Jen, who asks about how to help a child learn the difference between negotiating and manipulating. There is a line that shouldn't be crossed. But unless your child is still in the womb, I’m sure they have found that line and crossed it many times over. This podcast will help you gain confidence and proper control without squashing your child's creative negotiation skills.

Have you asked your children what questions they have about LGPTQ issues? If not, what is stopping you? If yes, have you truly listened or just made your opinion known? In this episode, I recall a counseling session I had with a child when they had feelings that felt confusing. Listen with an open heart and share with anybody you feel needs this message.
