Staring down the very essence of parenting, we've unearthed some profound insights on raising middle-schoolers from our personal experiences. The challenge? Balancing gentle parenting with the necessary dose of tough love. You're about to embark on a journey of understanding the disciplinary strategies we apply, the values we instill - respect, accountability, self-reliance - and the rewarding lessons we've learned on this bumpy ride. We share an intriguing episode involving my son, KJ, and the unique methodology we follow to ensure he rises above.
From the concept of gentle parenting to the importance of teaching respect and accountability, we cover it all - without advocating physical punishment.

How about the importance of teaching children to handle adversity early on? Well, buckle up, because we're also talking about these. And let's not forget the role of fathers and the ability of gentle words to influence a child's trajectory while navigating the teenage years.
Then there's self-care, relaxation techniques, and stress management - all essential elements to surviving the parental gauntlet. We discuss the therapeutic magic hidden within simple tasks like mowing the lawn and the profound sense of accomplishment and relaxation they offer. But what about intimacy, laughter, and satisfaction in relationships? Oh yes, we'll also delve into the importance of taking breaks, finding relaxation, and releasing stress. So get ready for a session packed with practical advice, shared laughter, and relatable tales from the parenting trenches.
