These once in a while episodes are concepts Bonnie has developed over the years that she discusses and ponders with her producer, Adam. They are critical pieces needed to fit together to form the big picture of a connected family. It’s when some of these pieces are missing that parents feel the most frustrated and drained in their attempts at controlling their children. Finding their places in the puzzle can be life changing.
Adam and Bonnie discuss the art (and pit-falls) of problem solving—the most important skill you can learn as a parent and teach your children. We also talk about your parent authority, when to use it and when not. And boundaries—understanding whose job or problem is whose so your child doesn’t have to take responsibility for you.
Bonnie Harris, MS.Ed., director of Connective Parenting, 30+ years of coaching, teaching, and writing for parents.
