Here's an interesting parenting twist on the golden rule. Psychologist Dr. Joshua Straub suggests that, when it comes to your son, you replace the word “treat” with the word “understand.” So the golden rule then becomes “understand your son the way you want to be understood.” Now, understanding your son may seem like an impossible task– especially if he's a teenager! But here's some ideas to start. When your son gets upset over something that seems unimportant to you, instead of saying “there's nothing to be mad about,” put yourself in your son's shoes. Most likely, there's an underlying fear or insecurity behind your son's anger. Seek to understand. And in turn, your son may begin to understand your side, as well.

Surfers don't try to avoid the waves or control them– they learn to glide over them. In the same way, family psychologist Dr. Joshua Straub has developed three steps to help your son “surf” over his emotions, instead of stuffing them down or using them to hurt others. First, empathize with your boy's feelings. Second, address the behavior. Explain the difference between healthy and unhealthy ways to deal with emotions. And third, problem solve together. Help your son come up with coping strategies, like walking his dog when he feels angry or reading at night when he feels anxious. Remind your son that emotions are a normal part of life that will ebb and flow. As one professor said, “You can't stop the waves, but you can learn to surf.” For more ideas on raising boys to be godly men, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

This week, we talk about the many layers of just how deeply it matters how we treat our children. How we speak to them, how we discipline them, the environment, what we do, what we don't do, etc…. IT MATTERS. We know that no one is perfect, and we will all mess up from time to time. We're human. How we repair ALSO matters so deeply.

Who are you becoming as a parent? Research shows that who we are becoming directly affects who our kids will be. On this week's episode of Unapologetic Julia talks with therapist and author Dr. Joshua Straub to examine that vital question on becoming, plus together the two take a look at the role feelings and emotions play in our kids' lives and how we parent. During their conversation Josh and Julia talk about three of the most important parenting strategies, address worry and anger in kids, and discuss why getting too invested in your kids' activities could be a red flag. This episode is full of practical tips and sound wisdom on not only pouring into your kids' emotional health, but also on checking your emotions to ensure you're not getting in your own way as a parent. No matter what season of parenting you're in, this conversation will undoubtedly help you better enter into your child's world as you work to address whatever they're feeling, together. Along with his wife, Christi, Josh leads Famous at Home. You can find out more about the Straubs and their ministry at famousathome.com, or by following them on Instagram.

Children don't often know how to voice their worries, and they may even think the things they are worried about are silly or unimportant. Today's guest, Dr. Josh Straub, along with his wife, Christi, co-wrote the children's book, “What Do I Do With Worry?” as a way to help parents foster emotional awareness in their kids. Listen in and be equipped to help your kids deal with worry and anxiety in a positive way. Dr. Meg & Guest Dr. Josh Straub (Part 1) If a child doesn't have the language to express what they are worried about, it can manifest in ways that show up as disobedience, anger, fear, or in other ways. Experiencing this firsthand with their own children was a major reason why Dr. Josh felt compelled to write, “What Do I Do With Worry?” While many parents focus on addressing the outward manifestation of negative behaviors, Dr. Josh explains how they can dig deeper into their child's heart to find out if their child may actually be feeling worried – while manifesting a different, negative behavior. The focus should be on the emotion that the child is experiencing, not just the behavior being exhibited. Dr. Meg & Guest Dr. Josh Straub (Part 2) As the conversation continues, Dr. Josh Straub explains the difference between worry and anxiety in children. What causes anxiety in kids? How can we best help our kids deal with anxiety? Dr. Josh uses examples from the book to teach parents how to connect with their children when it comes to dealing with anxious thoughts and behaviors: Talk about it. Label specific worries. Be grateful. In a very finite way, parents can help calm their children's brains when they are worried or anxious, when they sit with them and listen to what they have to say.

What is emotional safety? Look at it this way: an emotionally unsafe relationship is a place where you can’t be yourself. You’re walking on eggshells. You can’t share your emotions because when you do, they’re going set off an explosive or guilt-inducing response from the friend, parent, spouse, or boss you’re talking to. In this episode, Dr. Joshua Straub shares what makes you an emotionally safe person. Are you willing to press into and sit with the emotions of another person, even when it’s uncomfortable? It takes work, but the payoff is authentic intimacy. Grab your Java and join us! Guest: Josh Straub with Josh & Christi Straub (Check out the podcast!)

Let's just be honest. Every child can be challenging at some point. Mariam, Aron and Lindsey can all raise a hand to testify that we have each been through trying stages as a parent!

This is why we sent out a request to Dr. Joshua Straub, so we could pick his brain and find out what strategies he uses to help overwhelmed parents. Grab your notebook (or just open your notes section in your phone) and jot down those helpful tips that can help any parent! Enjoy!
This episode is a discussion about what we describe as the "art of becoming." Too often we get so focused on the day-to-day sleep, discipline, or behavioral issues with our kids that we lose sight of what really influences who they become. Don't get us wrong, it's not that these day-to-day issues don't matter. However, it's easy to get so lost in the day-to-day, that we neglect who we're becoming. In this episode, we talk about a recent research study that connected more parenting information to increased parenting anxiety and decreased self-confidence. As one article suggests, we get more anxious when we think there is one answer to our parenting problem, and we don't have it. Our hope is that this discussion encourages you to create the spiritual and emotional environment you and your kids need to thrive.

Parenting is hard enough, but raising kids in a lifestyle of service sometimes feels even harder. For military there are constant relocations that make you wonder after a while if you are causing more harm than good. Accepting the call to a service lifestyle is a deeply personal one.
