In this special edition of Family Time* (which we recorded right before Mother's Day), I sit down with Norma Q-Brown, our Family Care Director, and two incredible moms, Sonia and Carol, to talk about having critical conversations with kids around emotions and sexuality. They share their personal experiences using our ministry resources, including the Honest Talk game and Honest Talk book. 

Together, we explore how building emotional awareness creates the trust needed for kids to open up about harder topics, and why grace, humility, and ongoing dialogue matter more than having all the answers.

I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and I think you will too. It is honest, yet hope-filled. If you are a parent in today’s world, you don’t have to be scared.

*Family Time episodes are short, practical conversations to help parents feel more confident and competent in raising kids according to God’s design, even in a sex-saturated culture.

Topics Covered in this Episode:

• Importance of emotional awareness in parenting.
• Tools and resources for facilitating difficult conversations with children.
• Experiences of mothers in using parenting resources effectively.
