Summary: (Click title to listen)PODCAST SCRIPT: Kids need boundaries. No matter how hard they try to tell you they don’t need rules… it isn’t true! A lack of limits has the tendency to produce a child that’s selfish, demanding and aggressively controlling. Here’s an analogy. A glass of milk is a good thing… healthy and drinkable. But take away the limits of the glass… and all you get is spilled milk. All that good stuff is wasted! Take a look at the limits around your teen. Are they sturdy? Are they fair? If the rules are too confining, your teen will push right through them. If they’re too weak, you’re training your child to be selfish and demanding. Spilled milk, anyone? ©2013 Mark Gregston www.parentingtodaysteens.org. Email: markgregston@heartlightministries.org. Phone: 1-866-700-3264Also, listen via iTunes here.
