We are talking about how important but difficult it can be to be trustworthy for our kids when we are angry about their behavior.Support the show

When we share our mistakes with our kids we give them an insight into our humanity. When we receive God's grace in the process, we won't have to tie the stories up with neat bows or over exaggerate the impact. We can tell them some of the reality of what we were thinking, what we wanted, what was flawed, and how God loves us all through dealing with the fallout. Processing your life with your kids may be messy, but love flourishes where real life and needs are acknowledged.Support the show

Most parents don't tell their kids stories of their life choices. Fewer parents honestly bring their children into the reality of what they were thinking when they made those choices. When we don't process our lives with our kids, we leave them alone to navigate finding their values and motives. Don't leave them alone in this.Support the show

Sometimes the best things we can do for each other feel a little awkward.We may not be used to letting others affirm us, especially our children.So things may feel a little cringy, but it'll be one of the best decisions you can make.Support the show

Bill Thrall & John Lynch talk about how one of the ways your kids can tell if they trust you to influence them is to listen carefully to their answer when you ask, "How am I affecting you?" Support the show

"How am I affecting you?" This question can be hugely valuable to ask others, and especially our children. If you have the courage to hear their honest answers, new levels of trust can be accessed in your relationship.Support the show

It doesn't take sinless perfection for our kids to trust us, it takes integrity. Integrity is simply doing what you said you can do, and maybe more uncomfortably admitting what you can't do. This week we're back in The Cure and Parents, looking at Episode 7.Support the show
