Parenting - Navigating Everything with Brett Ullman

from St. Clair Community Church Podcast

On Sunday we had the second of three talks from Brett Ullman. This week we will be hearing his talk called "Parenting - Navigating Everything" that touched on the good, the bad and the ugly of parenting and how to care for our young people today with an intergen mindset.  (From https://www.brettullman.com/navigating-everything/)  We all want the best for our kids but which parenting information do we choose? With over 75,000 parenting books produced in the past 21 years and the many voices, articles and online resources available, the task of figuring out where to turn for parenting advice is overwhelming.  Some foundational parenting questions all parents must consider:  What are Parenting Styles and which ones should I be using in my parenting? How can I gain better communication skills and use them with my children? What does spending time with my kids look like? How do I effectively discipline my children? Various aspects of home life also need addressing, with each section being a sizeable discussion on their own. In this talk I will look at where parents can begin these discussions, (on-ramps) and give them practical tools so they can effectively talk with their kids about all of the following areas:  Family Discipleship (how to raise our kids in our Christian faith) Health (mental, emotional, physical) Sexuality (pornography, dating, marriage) Media (TV, movies, music, social media) Drug / Alcohol use & abuse Education Finances More on Brett from his website: Brett works as a full time speaker "[travelling] North America speaking to teens, young adults, leaders, and parents on topics including parenting, mental health, media, marriage, men, pornography, and dating. Brett's seminars engage and challenge attendees to try and connect our ancient faith with our modern culture we live in. Participants are inspired to reflect on what we know, what we believe and how our faith ought to serve as the lens through which we view and engage tough conversations in our society today."
