Haven!

The Facts of Life... & Other Lessons My Mother Taught Me (Part 2 of 2)

Nov 13, 2023

This episode is a continuation of last week's discussion about the necessity of evolving your parenting style as your child transitions between seasons. I brought in my own mom, Lisa Whelchel, to talk a bit about the her motherhood journey with us three kids over the years.

In Part 1 we talked about toddlerhood through jr. high, while in this episode, Part 2, we explore high school through adulthood. The teen years can be a tricky time for both child/mom as they learn to navigate unchartered territory and new boundaries, but then after they become an adult another dramatic shift needs to take place in order to evolve together.

Hint: It requires more & more autonomy until ultimately you aren’t “parenting” your adult child whatsoever.
