Episode 248 // There’s nothing more painful than watching your kids struggle. But when they are struggling, there are ways that you can help!
Last week, we looked at caring for our hearts when our kids struggle. Today, let’s dive into some practical tips for how to HELP them when they are struggling.
I’ve been a family counselor for over 10 years, and I’ve thought through these tips based on what will help ALL kids - teens and toddlers and beyond. Every person is different, every relationship is different - but there are some tried and true strategies that help all of us.
Join me, friend, and let’s help each other, encourage each other, take a deep breath, and wade into the dark waters that our kids are sometimes swimming in.
hugs & blessings,
Jess
