In this episode of the Grandparenthood podcast, Ben and Ian chat about the challenges grandparents face when family relationships become strained. Together, they unpack the myth of the “perfect family” and acknowledge the brokenness that exists in every home. From generational differences to communication breakdowns, this honest conversation offers practical advice and encouragement for grandparents trying to stay connected and bring healing to their families.

Key Takeaways:

  • Understand Universal Brokenness: Ian stresses that all families have brokenness to some degree, highlighting the importance of recognizing and addressing imperfections rather than masking them.

  • The Power of Words: Be mindful and intentional about communication within family dynamics. Ian highlights the importance of being "slow to speak and quick to listen" to prevent further harm.

  • Dealing with Conflict: Avoidance isn't the answer. Ian emphasizes that unresolved conflicts can lead to deeper issues and encourages proactive and sensitive resolution efforts.

  • Faith and Relationships: Christian faith provides guidance, but it's not a guarantee of perfect relationships. It requires the application of Biblical principles like grace, mercy, and understanding to combat relationship challenges.

  • Restoration and Reconciliation: Ian underscores that while not every relationship can be fully restored, taking steps toward reconciliation is crucial and should be approached with humility and openness.

Notable Quotes:

  • "Everyone's family is broken in some degree. Every family has a level of brokenness in it."

  • "Be slow to speak and quick to listen."

  • "If you doubt something, talk to your husband or wife before you say something."
