FamilyLife Today Interviews

In case you were unable to tune in to FamilyLife Today, here are two recent interviews I did with them.

What’s With All the Whining?

FamilyLife Today with guest Ginger Hubbard | May 8, 2019

Do your children whine? If so, then maybe author Ginger Hubbard can help! As a mother of two, she knows a thing or two about whining and shares a few “how to’s” to nip it in the bud. Ginger pulls examples from her own experience, and reminds parents that until you reach a child’s heart, their behavior isn’t likely to change. To help a child consider his or her behavior, Hubbard encourages parents to ask their children thought-provoking questions, and then have the kids repeat their request, but in a more respectful tone.

Lying Lips

FamilyLife Today with guest Ginger Hubbard | May 9, 2019

The tongue may be small, but it’s impact is great! That’s why author Ginger Hubbard believes parents need to put their kids on the right track early by teaching and training them to be wise with their words. If a parent is unsure whether a child is telling the truth, Hubbard believes he should err on the side of mercy. But if a parent knows for certain a child has lied, they need to address the issue and remind the child of the relational consequences of their behavior, and then apply suitable discipline.
