How to Avoid Power Struggles :: Stacy Bellward and Chad Hayenga [Ep 292]

<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With more family togetherness than ever before comes the potential for a lot more arguing and nagging our kids to obey. If you’re stuck in a parenting rut or negative cycle, then our friends from</span> <a href= "https://connectedfamilies.org"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Connected Families</span></a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">are here to help. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stacey Bellward and Chad Hayenga join me to talk about breaking the patterns of defensiveness in our kids and how the power of curious questions can create productive conversations and build wisdom.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I think as we look at scripture and we consider how Jesus approached people, you know, it was surprising to me when I first learned that Jesus asked 307 questions that are recorded in the gospels. And that's a lot of questioning. And we think about Jesus as being a great teacher. Jesus is a great teacher, but he often times uses questions to build wisdom and to hold people accountable.”</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you want to go deeper after listening to this show, Connected Families is offering a special promo code for Don’t Mom Alone listeners for their</span> <a href= "https://connectedfamilies.org/questions-oc/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Power of Questions online course</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.
