Simple FamiliesThe Breakthrough Years ft. Ellen GalinskyThere are widely held assumptions about the adolescent years--many of which are negative. My guest today, Ellen Galinsky, challenges many of the stereotypes that we've come to believe about teens. In this chat she shares the basic needs of adolescents to help us better understand what they need (and want) from us. Her research supports collaborating with children during these years of growth, rather than trying to hold tight in controlling them.

Five Minute FamilyA Parent's GoalGood morning, Five Minute Families. So glad you are with us this morning. We are discussing parenting for a second week.Tying into the parenting behaviors and attitudes last week is a parenting analogy presented by Dr. Robert Kellemen. Each parent drew a dot on their notes. Next, around the dot, we drew a circle fairly close. Then, a second circle a bit further away. Then, another and another. And, finally, a circle as far as from the dot as our paper allowed. This is an illustration of our God-given goals as parents. Our child is the...
