Insights and inspirations about parenting.

Sibling Relationships

Here is a link to the BYU radio program on Nov. 6th about difficult adult sibling relationships and strengthening good ones. I come on after the first guest, about 1 hr. 15 min. into the program.

Parenting Expert Contributor on BYU Radio Matt Townsend show

I contribute as a parenting expert on BYU radio (Sirius XM 143) about twice a month. Here are the two latest programs I contributed to on the Matt Townsend Show. On July 29th the topic was helping children adjust during a prolonged parental separation (such as the military) http://www.byuradio.org/episode/dbd8a7a7-2214-4f1d-9f9a-f9ca3c3ea8bb/the-matt-townsend-show-spousal-separation

And the topic today, August 4, 2014, I spoke about on the Matt Townsend show was how to structure successful family mealtimes. http://www.byuradio.org/episode/8c86e22b-4f33-4f32-bfda-f735ab25e6f6/the-matt-townsend-show-family-and-food

“The Grandma Version”

This essay was published in the Power of Moms. Here’s the summary and the link:
When life gets overwhelming, sometimes it is necessary to gain a new perspective. The “grandma version” of ourselves is wise and witty and helps us to achieve the balance we need to survive the years until we do indeed become grandparents
