Episode 084 | Tattoos, Nose Rings & Funky Colored Hair

by Ginger Hubbard

Air Date: August 22, 2022

Episode Description: When you say “no” to current fashion trends, are you being accused of being legalistic and controlling? Are you looking for ways to set standards that you believe are best without provoking anger in your teenager? Join Ginger Hubbard and Katy Morgan as they discuss the importance of keeping an eternal perspective as we navigate the parental challenges of the teenage years.

MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

  • Recap of tips discussed:
    • Don’t overreact. Calmly tell them you need a little time before discussing it--and be aware that it could just be a fleeting thought.
    • Ask yourself why you feel the way you do about it. And pray about it.
    • Once you’re all prayed up and calm, ask the questions we talked about earlier to help them evaluate their own heart-motives.
    • Respect their opinion even if you don’t agree with them.
    • Discuss the reasons for your concerns, which might include health risks, age, future employment and maturity level. 
    • Ask them to pray that God would give you peace if it’s His Will.
    • And then finally, show respect for their opinion by letting them know at what age you would be willing to support their decision.
  • Quick tip: Heat up water in a microwave-safe dish to clean it
