TMV: Episode 24 – Discipline – Part 4
Today we complete our series on discipline by talking about how to disciple middle schoolers and high schoolers. We discuss the new challenges that come with this age group as they have more leeway, more independence, more external influences, and more opportunities to stumble into sin. We acknowledge the issue of brain development and how this can sometimes create challenges, especially in middle school-aged boys. We talk about how, as the stakes get higher, conversations around the issues that arise do tend to become more heated, and there are times when we, as parents, need to apologize to our kids. We are also given opportunities to talk to our kids about our own struggles with sin, and demonstrate that, as their mistakes don’t change our love for them, our mistakes don’t change God’s love for us. We finish it off by broaching the tricky subject of teens and dating, and how to help our kids manage their own sexuality in line with God’s purpose for marriage. Tune in today!
