You can move forward after a rift with your adult children by learning new ways to build trust and respect between you and your child.
Respect
Many adults carry some kind of psychological hurt from their childhood years.
By working with our kids, we can keep sibling conflict from escalating and keep peace on the family horizon.
Learning that your teenage daughter is having sex can likely leave you with more questions than answers. Following the initial wave of emotions and panic, you might ask yourself: How did I not know about this? What do I do now?
Recognize the differences in how your children learn.
Try these strategies to counteract culture by helping your teen develop a strong, positive identity.
If you’re a strong-willed woman, it can be tough to parent a younger version of yourself. But you also have a definite advantage… you know what it’s like to be a strong-willed child.
The work of Christ in our lives is just plain bigger than our circumstances
Today’s kids face new challenges and ask questions our kids didn’t have to two decades ago. But God has provided every answer and truth to help them have a positive mindset and turn adversity into an adventure.
Teach your kids that Jesus did for us what we could never do for ourselves: He measured up.
