When Your Teen Needs Independence
How do you avoid putting your identity in your kids' behavior? Jim Daly speaks with Dr. Ken Wilgus and Jessica Pfeiffer on how children need to face consequences for their choices, and a concept called Planned Emancipation. Also, John and Danny explain why it's hard but necessary to let your kids suffer if they make bad decisions.
