In this live episode from North Tonawanda, New York, Danny and Brittney Serpell respond to powerful audience questions about parenting, correction, and connection. From overcorrected kids and resistant teenagers to “I don’t know” shutdowns and sibling conflict, this episode is full of real-life moments, raw honesty, and practical tools for parenting with love and leadership.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

How to shift from punishment to wisdom when offering correction
Why connection is the foundation for lasting influence with teens
How to draw out your child when they shut down or avoid engagement
What to do when sibling rivalry becomes the norm
How to model repentance and rebuild trust as a parent

Key Takeaways:

Correction without connection breeds resistance—prioritize relationship over being right.
When kids say “I don’t know,” it’s often self-protection—create safety by managing your reaction.

You can’t control your kids, but you can control your access to resources, opportunities, and permission.

Sibling relationships are training grounds for love—don’t settle for conflict as the norm.
Leading your family well means owning your mistakes, leading with humility, and choosing connection every time.
