Dr. Danny Huerta and Rebecca St. James welcome authors Tim Shoemaker and his son Mark Shoemaker to discuss practical strategies for uncomfortable conversations with kids, especially preteens and teens, covering respect, emotions, dating, and household rules. Key do’s and don'ts are shared, and they even talk about how teen pushback can be healthy engagement that builds conscience! We'll also answer a listener question about a 6-year-old who obeys only with threats. This is a great episode for parents with children of any age. Make sure you share it with your friends.
