Podcast: 1:08:45

One of the key ideas of conventional parenting – the parenting most of us grew up with – is that when a child misbehaves, the parents should mete out consequences. The kinds of consequences we parents favor depend on the culture we’ve grown up in, like spanking, time outs, going to your room. But what if there’s another, more effective way to bring up well-disciplined children? Join Hand in Hand Founder, Patty Wipfler for a discussion of consequences and the options available to parents to set limits that build better, more connected relationships.
