In Part 2 of this conversation, we continue to explore our relationships with our parents by shifting perspective and acknowledging an important truth—parenting is tough.
In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to meet our parents halfway. We also dive into different parenting styles, the challenges of navigating double standards, and why “connection before correction” can make a meaningful difference in building trust and communication.
This conversation is about growth on both sides—learning to see things from each other’s point of view while working toward stronger, healthier relationships.
As we head into April, Child Abuse Awareness and Prevention Month, Nic, GSMYC's Marketing & Communications Coordinator, shares important information to help raise awareness and encourage ongoing, meaningful conversations around this topic.
This episode focuses on perspective and strengthening family connections.
