Families in crisis often feel overwhelmed, isolated and “at the end of their rope,” but Mark Gregston, Wayne Shepherd and Courtney Lafleur remind parents they are not alone and real help is available. They explain that teen struggles are usually signs of deeper issues — not parental failure — and that progress often comes through small steps, strengthened relationships and seeking support. Parents are encouraged to focus on connection over control, admit they don’t have all the answers, and reach out for community or counseling instead of trying to carry the burden alone. Ultimately, this season is temporary — change is possible when families hold on, stay consistent and take steps toward healing.

If you are at the end of your rope, Mark's Families In Crisis Conference may be the help and support you need. Visit familycrisisretreat.com to learn more!
