Are you at your wit's end with a child who just won't listen? Does it mean that you're a bad parent - or are disobedience and emotional meltdowns just a natural part of a child's development?

In this episode, Stephanie Alessi Muina and her husband Chris sit down with their mom, Mary Alessi, to get some advice and help on the chaotic journey of raising young kids—giving you valuable strategies to use when when your child is pushing the limits and rejecting your authority. We'll discuss why age-appropriate behavior isn’t the same as permissive parenting, and how proactive, loving discipline builds character (for both kids and parents).

You’ll hear practical wisdom on balancing different parenting styles, avoiding the trap of passive parenting, and the importance of showing kids grace—while never shying away from holding the line.

This episode will encourage you to stay committed to your family's values, and raise kids that will thank you for giving them healthy and strong boundaries!
