This episode of The Peaceful Parenting Podcast is a conversation with Corey and me about how frustrating it is when you feel like you’re getting the worst performance reviews from your children. We discuss how this can include your kids complaining about everything you do, as well as your kids being “good” out in the world and then more challenging at home.
