Podcasts about family breakdown

Today, we're discussing the tragic murder of Austin Metcalf — a case that's not just heartbreaking but deeply revealing of a larger cultural crisis we need to address head-on. I'll be sharing my raw thoughts on what happened, and more importantly, having the uncomfortable (but necessary) conversation surrounding crime statistics in the black community.If we're ever going to see real change — fewer senseless killings, safer neighborhoods, and stronger families — then we have to stop tiptoeing around the truth. It's time to talk about why these patterns keep repeating and what cultural shifts must happen to break the toxic and deadly cycle.This isn't about hate — it's about accountability, truth, and the fight for life, stability, and genuine justice.—https://policecoffee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACG7qmLTSF8TidU6uJpGkHMYzxsnd&gclid=Cj0KCQjwqcO_BhDaARIsACz62vPh4GA_6w_PdX8w4PW0sRhPD76KOyhYBmiEOdpiLXHP1G10c9kaPMEaAkK-EALw_wcB

The nuclear family is the backbone of a strong society—without it, we will crumble. In this episode, we're talking about Elon Musk's latest love child with Ashley St. Clair and why Conservatives cannot fall into the trap of normalizing single motherhood and reckless men who create broken families. Strong individuals come from strong families. When the family unit collapses, people become weak, directionless, and ultimately easier for the government to exploit. The more broken the home, the more dependent the individual. And guess who loves that? The people in power who want control over your life. So, we are talking biblical gender roles, marriage, family, and why morals will always matter—even if they stop mattering to everyone else. A father's leadership and a mother's nurturing aren't interchangeable, and no amount of modern delusion will change that. Children need both a mother and a father in the home. And no, morals don't change for you once you're rich. Wh*re culture needs to die because the next generation is at stake.--https://policecoffee.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooc599VmOCGa3oE2DnVcJ4uLA69XDoBZf8ChiOpFqVfKc_BASiR

We aren't health professionals, just sharing our experiences so please if you need to, make a GP appointment or talk to some fab mental health charities like MIND and Young Minds

The iconic family scenes we see in classic TV are not the norm for most people in American society today. Divorce has disrupted more families than ever before in our history. And the ripple effects go beyond the obvious heartache and loss, affecting even the banalities of annual rituals and traditions. Challenges to family life aren't new. But the challenges in our day have multiplied. And these problems aren't unrelated to the difficulties we face as God's people, especially since we see in the New Testament how the church is to be the family of God. We are in relationship to one another as brothers and sisters, as fathers and mothers in the faith. On this episode of Reconstructing Faith, join Trevin Wax as he considers the church's responsibility in the era of family breakdown.

Divorce has been described as the “death of a small civilization.” Jim Daly explains why the breakdown of the family is one of the most overlooked reasons for the high poverty rate in America.   Support Family Ministry   If you've listened to any of our podcasts, please give us your feedback.

In 2014, Pew Research Center reported that for the first time, the number of children raised in a two-parent household was a minority. We have all recognized and felt the effects of this tragic breakdown in the family, so today, we want to look at God's original design for the family. What were God's original intentions and purposes for the family? This critical worldview question begs to be addressed in our day.

In this episode, Michael Taylor and William Clouston discuss the causes and impacts of the UK's epidemic of family breakdown. The IFS Deaton Review of Inequalities states that parental separation is more frequent in poorer households and can further entrench existing inequalities through adverse effects on parents and children. The proportion of British children who have experienced family breakdown by age 16-17 grew from 9% of those born in 1958 to 43% of those born in 2002. The SDP's New Declaration asserts that a stable and secure family life is the foundation of society and critical to raising responsible citizens. The defence and support of family life lies at the heart of all SDP policies, particularly on industry, economics, welfare and housing. William and Michael discuss the relative importance of economic and cultural factors in driving increasing levels of family breakdown, and argue that the problem can only really be addressed through a nation-building approach.

On this episode of High Noon, Inez Stepman interviews Mary Eberstadt, novelist, playwright, essayist, columnist, and author of several books, including her most recent, Primal Screams: How the Sexual Revolution Created Identity Politics.Eberstadt urges compassion for the “woke,” arguing essentially that many of us have been denied the natural family “habitat” to become psychologically healthy members of the species by family breakdown and abandonment of religion. She weaves together threads of sociology, statistical research, animal observation, and theology to paint a difficult picture of just how detached from a natural family life we have gotten in the modern age.--High Noon is an intellectual download featuring conversations that make possible a free society.

With stress and anxiety off the charts among our children and teens, it’s important that we understand some of the more common causes so that we might focus on prevention in order to have to focus less on intervention and treatment. With studies showing that almost one in four kids will experience depression before they are nineteen, we need to know what experts are citing as some of the main causes. First, there’s the pressure to do well at school. Second, school exams are a cause for stress. Kids don’t want to fail or disappoint their parents. Third, there’s peer pressure. There is tremendous pressure to fit in. Fourth, there’s bullying, which has ramped up due to the 24/7 nature of cyber-bullying. Fifth, kids are feeling stress due to world events, including things like war and natural disasters. And finally, there are the stresses related to family difficulties, changes, and breakdown. Parents, be aware of these factors, and point your kids to Jesus and the peace that passes understanding.

I recently read an article by journalist Terrell Clemmons in Salvo Magazine. The article reports on efforts to answer the destructive ongoing fallout of the sexual revolution with a counter-cultural sexual revolution that affirms, celebrates, and promotes the life-giving message of a biblical sexual ethic. Clemmons reports on the efforts of Jennifer Roback Morse and the Ruth Institute, and the organizations efforts to restore the narrative on marriage, family, and human sexuality that God wove into the creation at the very beginning. In the article, Clemmons shares these urgent marching orders to parents, youth workers, and anyone else who’s leading kids: “Every biting tentacle of the sexual revolution proceeds from the same defective root – the ripping of sex from its God-ordained context and purpose. And so, we must first speak and live according to sexual virtue.” Jesus has called us to a life of counter-cultural speaking, teaching, and living. What are you giving to your kids?

Interview with Verity Best and Josette Gardiner : Counselling for children affected by family breakdown. Working with families and children in mediation, dispute resolution and family conflict. In this interview with Verity and Josette, co-directors of focus counselling service, we talk about how to work with children who are experiencing family breakdown or conflict. Verity and Josette's share some of their tops for telling children parents are separating and what to look out for in the behaviour, that may indicate the need some additional support. Josette Gardiner BAppSocSci(Couns), Member ACA, ACA-Recognised Supervisor Josette provides counselling to adults, children and adolescents. Josette works with children using a variety of modalities and has a special interest in trauma and its effects on the brain and behaviour. Because of this, she provides effective and nurturing therapy to children where family violence has been part of their story. She has also worked extensively with a range of other issues such as self-harm, grief and loss, parental conflict and trauma recovery. Josette uses a range of tools, games and activities to help children untangle their inner world in a way that helps them make sense of it. She helps them master the skills they need to manage their emotions in an often-complicated world. All this is done with a sense of hope for the future, and a belief that the child is capable of any change they hope to achieve and the ability to heal from past hurts. In all her work, Josette uses a trauma-informed approach. Josette also holds a Certificate in Supervision and is an ACA recognised supervisor. Verity Best BAppSocSci(Couns), Grad Dip Family Dispute Resolution, Member ACA. Verity provides counselling and mediation services to adults. She has had a range of experience in the mental health sector, such as family violence counselling, crisis and trauma counselling, and counselling for addictions, in particular gambling, alcohol and drugs. In addition to this, Verity is accredited by the Attorney-General's Department to provide mediation services to separated parents in relation to children's matters. As a mediator, Verity provides a safe platform for separated parents to discuss their children's needs and develop a mutually agreeable parenting plan. In this service, as in her counselling practice, Verity provides a non-judgemental approach and a belief that her clients have the ability to change their lives in a positive way. In both counselling and mediation, Verity aims above all to empower her clients, and support them to find ways to make meaningful change. Verity also holds a Certificate in Supervision and provides bimonthly group supervision to Applicant Practitioners (IVO's) in the Victorian Magistrates Court. How do you tell your children that you're separating? Non-blaming of the other parent Keeping it developmentally focused Don't need to tell them the reasons why Tell the children it's not their fault it Things not to say Playing blame mum/dads had an affair When talking to children about family separation or divorce. Advocating for the child and being child focused is a priority for Verity and Josette Children may have different ideas to why parents separated and may blame themselves It's important to tell the children it's not their fault – even if they haven't verbalised it. You may need to say this a few times. They may not mention it because it's a shameful feeling – so they will keep it very well hidden Some may be very well behaved because they don't want to upset the parents Parents might think they're doing really well,  They're trying to protect each parent and internalise the pain Question: So what are some of the tips you have for parents or practitioners on how to guide that conversation , not to blame, and not tell them things they don't need to know, but to find that balance on how to give them enough information so they don't fill in the blanks with feeling that it's their fault? 3 points that are essential for telling children about parents separating Keeping the language unified – mummy and daddy both still love you Telling them that even though mummy and daddy may not love each other any more , we can never stop loving you It's not your fault Say these as often as you need. If they come to you with questions, you can say simple things like ‘ mummy and daddy are working on it'  take the pressure and responsibility off them. If they come to you to say something happened at the other parents house you can empathise with the child without blaming the other parent That sounds like you're feeling XYZ That sounds very confusing ….. do you want to talk about it Children can find it difficult to name their feelings – so giving them that open-ended question so they are invited to talk about it As parents it's ok to say we're finding it very confusing too but we're working on it Question: What are your tips for working with families who live in a high conflict home.
