Listen "Do As I Do"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the "Heart and Soulution" podcast, Mike and Kristen Jones, begin with the announcement of a giveaway winner for a Table Topics Date Night game. The main focus of the episode is a discussion on parenting boundaries, drawing heavily on the principles and laws outlined by clinical psychologist Dr. Henry Cloud, author of the book Boundaries. Mike and Kristen use their own experiences raising their four children to illustrate how they implemented these principles, emphasizing the importance of consistency, modeling good boundaries, and teaching age-appropriate responsibility through mechanisms like a unique chore and allowance system. They discuss different age ranges, from newborns (zero to one) focused on trust and nurturing, to adolescents (12 to 18), where parents must learn to release control and allow for growing independence.(C) 2025 All Music by Mike and Kristen Jones for use by Heart and Soulution, including Heart and Soulution theme, Card of the day jingle and all background music; generated with Suno.ai.Reference material and Resources to dive deeper:Cloud, Henry, and John Townsend.
