    Although my kids are raised, we are now navigating life as grandparents to 10 with two of them being adopted at age of seven and four from the foster care system. Dr. Kathy offers excellent insight into all things related to raising kids in today’s crazy culture.As a former high school teacher, I really appreciate all the knowledge she brings in an easy to understand way.

  • Entitlement

    I have listened to a lot of parenting podcasts, advice, therapists etc. I was really disappointed about this episode.

Your whole show was taking her perspective and critiquing it, versus bringing your own perspective to the table on how to counter entitlement. The fact that Dr Kathy is critiquing someone who he wasn’t familiar with and obviously didn’t understand how she suggests implementing her ideas, is poor taste... more

  • “Kind of”

    Excellent content. But maybe Wayne could tighten up his monologues and questions and drop the phrase “kind of”.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Playing With Your Kids Builds More Than Memories
Q: What does the study say about how playing with kids affects their brains?
The study shows that when parents and kids play together, their brain activity synchronizes, creating a bond that goes beyond language or immediate communication; this synchrony strengthens belonging and shared thinking patterns.
Are Kids Falling Behind? Or Just Smarter in New Ways?
Q: What is People Smart and why should it be prioritized over IQ smarts right now?
People Smart is about reading others, understanding emotions, and engaging with empathy in real-time, which enables collaborative thinking and safer, more meaningful social interactions; it should be developed alongside other intelligences because it underpins responsible leadership and healthy relationships.
Dr. Kathy Says - Hormones, Hurtful Words, and Raising Bold Kids - Questions from Be Bold for Jesus
Q: How should parents handle hormonal rages in teens without reacting with shock or anger?
Treat it as a hormonal phase, respond with care and respect, explain that hormones influence behavior, and reinforce expectations for kindness and self-control.
When Kids Grieve: How to Walk With Them Without Trying to Fix It
Q: What does it mean for us as parents when we find out that our kids are struggling?
It's natural for parents to want to redeem brokenness and feel overwhelmed when their children experience life events that are difficult.
When Kids Grieve: How to Walk With Them Without Trying to Fix It
Q: How would you encourage parents to really approach grief with their kids?
Parents should approach grief carefully, with kindness and compassion, while processing their own grief to be more available for their kids.
