  • The Counter-Cultural Secret of Planned Emancipation: Why Parenting Doesn’t Have to Be Hard

    The Counter-Cultural Secret of Planned Emancipation: Why Parenting Doesn’t Have to Be Hard
    Apr 29 2025
    What if parenting didn’t have to be as frustrating as it often feels—especially during the teenage years? Dr. Ken Wilgus, author of Feeding the Mouth That Bites You, joins John and me in this episode to reveal his game-changing approach to parenting called "Planned Emancipation." The idea: give your teens freedoms—starting at 13—to make choices about their lives, like what they watch, how clean their room is, and more. I’ll be honest, when I first heard Dr. Wilgus explain his method, I had a hard time with it. But as we dug deeper into the conversation, I warmed up to it... and I’m already starting to implement it in my own approach to parenting. But what's the catch? It’s not about losing control: it’s about empowering your kids to take responsibility for their own decisions. Dr. Wilgus explains why giving freedoms, rather than privileges, builds autonomy, strengthens responsibility, and ultimately makes the teen years smoother for both parents and kids. This conversation will challenge the way you think about raising your kids. With so much conflicting parenting advice out there, Dr. Wilgus' method teaches us how to move beyond the stress and truly prepare our kids for adulthood. If you're ready to take the frustration out of your relationship with your teen, this episode is a must-listen! Key takeaways: The key difference between parenting and raising kids. How giving freedoms, not privileges, builds real responsibility. Why holding teens accountable with freedom is the secret to reducing conflict. What's the catch?

  • Want All the Kids to Hang Out at Your House? Here's How!

    Want All the Kids to Hang Out at Your House? Here's How!
    Apr 15 2025
    If you want to be the house where all the kids hang out, it’s pretty simple: FEED THEM. I’ve invited my good friend, Logan Wolfram, to the conversation because as a mom of teen boys, she is living proof that this is the case. Feed them. They will hang out. Logan and I talk about what this is and what it isn’t. It’s NOT trying to be the “cool parent” and providing drugs and alcohol to underage kids. It IS providing a safe space, full of love and laughter. We discuss the easy steps in becoming the home all the kids want to hang out at, plus some hilarity that involves a bat (the nocturnal kind), a mountain cabin, and a tree swing attempt gone bad. Also, make sure you’re subscribed to my personal newsletter if you want Logan’s easy recipes to feed your teens and all their friends! Life Happens. Let’s Talk About It.
