Parenting Principles to Bring out the BEST in Your Kids, with Miles Mettler
Family life is busy, and parenting can be downright overwhelming. Oh how we need the sound wisdom of successful parents who are a step ahead of us to encourage us along the way. Today’s guest, Miles Mettler is exactly that! Miles is an ambassador with Focus on the Family, and he has raised 4 amazing kids into adulthood. He has so much wisdom to share! Miles is the author of 52 Parenting Principles: How to bring out the BEST in your kids which we are drawing from in this episode!
In today’s conversation Miles talks about the importance being intentional about listening to our kids, avoiding the lectures, (so hard!) being “disciplined in your discipline” and more. I found so many nuggets to hold on to in this episode, and I think you will too! Find show notes with links over at:
