Nov 22, 2023 Season 3 Episode 110
Dr. Leah Featherstone & Beka Dean

It's our last episode of 2023!! This one talks through various topics, including lying, managing big behaviors, and managing different opinions of family members.

You can hear our episode on lying here and the episode when Lincoln had a hard interaction with his teacher here.

Bottom line: Give people grace and approach behavior with curiosity.

If you're looking for more information on parenting differences, that one can be found here.

What are your non-negotiables? What is reasonable to expect from others?

It's also important to remember the difference between boundaries and requests or demands. Boundaries are something I do, in response to something else. Requests or demands are things I ask of other people. Imposing a boundary requires nothing from the other person. Requests or demands expects others to change their behavior.

In a perfect world, we would have an open dialogue full of information sharing and discussion of perspectives, in order to both feel comfortable parenting our kids. If it's not, we can set a boundary with other people.
