    I truly believe we all strive to be the best parent possible, yet when we strive for perfection is when we get ourselves in trouble. The notion of perfection is unattainable so let’s embrace being an Imperfect Parent instead.

    What We Talked About:
    • Understanding generational behaviors helps us break unhelpful cycles

    • Parenting as a partnership

    • Mistakes are valuable learning opportunities for both parents and children.

    • How to handle unsolicited advice

    • The “8-Year Rule” for tough conversations

    • Creating an open family environment

    Things to Remember

    “There’s not one formula that works in parenting.”

    “Parenting is believing in our ability to parent.”

    “It's totally okay to fail, it's okay to make a mistake but it's not okay to stop, it's not okay not to learn.”

    “Consequences are important to teach our kids but there are times in life when everybody needs a little bit of grace.”

    “Imperfection is good and normal.”

    “We know our children better than the experts do and we need to trust that we know our children.”
