Are you worried about your kids rebelling as teenagers?Do you ever wonder if your parenting style today is planting the seeds of future rebellion—or resilience?In this episode, Greg and Rachel Denning tackle the controversial connection between “restaurant parenting” and teenage rebellion. They share why forcing your children to “behave perfectly” in public often backfires, and how double standards in parenting create resentment and distance that can last for decades.Instead, they reveal a better way: building congruence, fostering autonomy, and meeting your child's deepest needs for love, certainty, identity, and adventure. When you allow children to “act their age,” explain the why behind rules, and respect their growing independence, you prevent destructive rebellion and instead raise courageous, confident adults.This powerful conversation explores:Why unmet needs lead to rebellion (and how to meet them early)The difference between healthy vs. unhealthy rebellionHow giving your kids autonomy strengthens respect and influenceWhy congruence between public and private parenting matters mostHow to prevent resentment from turning into long-term rebellionThe secret to keeping influence with your kids as they grow into teens and adultsIf you want to raise teens who respect you, trust you, and stay connected—without power struggles, yelling, or forced obedience— this episode will shift the way you see rebellion forever.

He tells her that her family has been evicted, but urges her not to go and help them. He confesses to the murder to Sonya. She responds with deep pity and promises to support Raskolnikov and not abandon him. She is shocked when he tells her that his situation and poverty was not the motive for his crime. He says "I was ambitious to become another Napoleon; that was why I committed a murder." He also confesses that he feels detached from other people and believed and still maybe believes that he is superior to most other people. Sonya tells him that he has been punished for turning away from God. He reaffirms that the crime was fueled by self-absorption, that he wished to prove that he was extraordinary and able to take actions that ordinary people cannot. Sonya tells him that he must confess to his crimes publicly for God to give him peace. At first he is resistant, but soon consents. Sonya promises to see him in prison and support him. She also gives Raskolnikov a pendant crucifix to wear, like the one she wears, saying that they will both bare their crosses. Then Lebezyatnikov knocks on the door.

She says that she has read his article and that she was impressed by it, even if she didn't understand it all. Raskolnikov looks at his article with disgust. His mother has convinced herself that he son is a genius destined for greatness and that his strange eccentricities are proof of it. She is overjoyed to see him. Raskolnikov shocks her by asking if she will love him always, no matter what. He tells her that he will always love her, but that he must leave. She tries to get him to stay, but he leaves and returns to his apartment. He is worried that he will find Porfiry there, but when he opens the door, he finds Dunya. He confesses to her that he has thought about ending his life, but that he couldn't go through with it. He tells her that she will confess, and she urges him to do it, arguing that it will help atone for his crime. This appellation causes Raskolnikov to flip. He argues that he only killed a louse and that what he did wasn't a crime. Dunya is shocked at his response. Looking into her face, he can see how much pain he has caused her and his family.

In this powerful episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Blaise Aguirre, a Harvard psychiatrist and global expert on adolescent mental health, to unpack one of the most important—and often overlooked—parts of parenting: the inner voice we help shape in our kids.   We dive into the role of tone, discipline, and compassion in parenting, and how the words we use as fathers often become the voice our kids carry for life. Dr. Aguirre breaks down how to raise resilient, critical thinkers without crushing their confidence, and why creating an environment of both structure and safety is essential to building emotionally healthy children. If you've ever wondered how to balance discipline with grace, or how to stop fueling your child's inner critic, this conversation is a must-listen.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Introduction to the Dad Edge movement and today's topic on kids' inner voice [2:24] - Why your tone as a father becomes your child's inner dialogue [4:58] - Dr. Aguirre's background and 25 years at Harvard [7:10] - How the inner critic forms in childhood [9:37] - The difference between helpful self-reflection and harmful self-hatred [13:05] - Signs your child may be struggling with a damaging inner voice [15:32] - Why “what's wrong with you?” is one of the most destructive phrases a dad can say [18:30] - The role of technology and peer influence on self-worth [21:03] - How to raise critical thinkers who don't default to catastrophizing [25:51] - Emotional regulation: why your calm becomes their calm [28:08] - Addressing bullying and teaching kids which voices to trust [30:22] - Why negativity sticks more than praise (and how to counter it) [34:04] - Finding balance between praise, discipline, and boundaries [36:55] - The difference between punishment and effective discipline [42:12] - Repairing mistakes as a parent and the power of apology [47:14] - Creating psychological safety at home so kids feel seen and heard [51:16] - Why fear-based parenting backfires and undermines performance [55:07] - The dangers of boundary-less parenting and raising entitled kids [57:43] - Wrapping it all together: structure + compassion = resilience     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Your Voice Becomes Their Voice The tone you use with your kids doesn't just shape the moment—it shapes the inner dialogue they carry into adulthood. 2. Discipline Must Be Tied to Behavior, Not Identity Punishment that attacks who a child is damages self-worth. Effective discipline connects consequences to actions while preserving dignity. 3. Safety Builds Confidence Kids thrive when they know they're safe to fail, safe to talk, and safe to be themselves at home. Psychological safety is the foundation of resilience. 4. Emotional Regulation Is Contagious When fathers stay calm, they teach kids how to regulate their own emotions. Your calm presence can be the anchor in their storms. 5. Balance Is Key Parenting that blends structure, limits, and grace raises children who are both confident and resilient—ready to face life with critical thinking and courage.       LINKS & RESOURCES   Resources from Dr. Blaise Aguirre: https://thedadedge.com/1357 Bark Phone & App (protect your kids online): https://thedadedge.com/bark Dad Edge Alliance (career-driven dads): https://thedadedge.com/alliance Dad Edge Boardroom (entrepreneurial dads): https://thedadedge.com/mastermind Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://thedadedge.com/podcast       If this episode challenged you as a father, share it with another dad who needs to hear it.

To prove Sonya's innocence, Katerina Ivanovna, asks her to turn out her pockets and is stunned when a 100 ruble note falls to the floor. Luzhin magnanimously agrees not to press charges against the girl, but to Luzhin's horror, Lebezyatnikov steps forwards and declares that he saw Luzhin plant the note in Sonya's pocket. Raskolnikov then steps forward and explains that Luzhin was probably looking to embarrass him for his relations with Sonya. Luzhin, plans foiled, tries to leave the apartment and maintain his innocence while insulting Raskolnikov and Lebezatnikov. After Luzhin leaves, the fight between Katerina Ivanovna and her Landlady continues, ending in the eviction of the Marmeladov family.

Fantasy football season is about to kick off. If you're in one, chances are you know all about the punishments for the person that places last at the end of the season. Punishments can range from something as harmless as the loser buying dinner or extreme, as is the case of John's nephew Ben. He's about to take the stage for a five minute comedy set for losing in his league. We gave him a call this morning to try and settle his nerves a little bit. 

Miroslav Volf explores agapic love, creation's goodness, and God's grief—an alternative to despair, power, and world rejection.“When a wanted child is born, the immense joy of many parents often renders them mute, but their radiant faces speak of surprised delight: ‘Just look at you! It is so very good that you are here!' This delight precedes any judgment about the beauty, functionality, or moral rectitude of the child. The child's sheer existence, the mere fact of it, is ‘very good.' That's what I propose God, too, exclaimed, looking at the new-born world. And that unconditional love grounds creation's existence.”In this fourth Gifford Lecture, Miroslav Volf contrasts the selective and self-centered love of Ivan Karamazov with the radically inclusive, unconditional love of Father Zosima. Drawing deeply from Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov, Genesis's creation and flood narratives, and Hannah Arendt's concept of amor mundi, Volf explores a theology of agapic love: unearned, universal, and enduring. This is the love by which God sees creation as “very good”—not because it is perfect, but because it exists. It's the love that grieves corruption without destroying it, that sees responsibility as mutual, and that offers the only hope for life in a deeply flawed world. With references to Luther, Nietzsche, and modern visions of power and desire, Volf challenges us to ask what kind of love makes a world, sustains it, and might one day save it. “Love the world,” he insists, “or lose your soul.”Episode Highlights“The world will either be loved with unconditional love, or it'll not be loved at all.”“Unconditional love abides. If the object of love is in a state that can be celebrated, love rejoices. If it is not, love mourns and takes time to help bring it back to itself.”“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all. Each needs forgiveness from all. Each must forgive all.”“Creation is not primarily sacramental or iconic. It is an object of delight both for humans and for God.”“Agapic love demands nothing from the beloved, though it cares and hopes much for them and for the shared world with them.”Show NotesSchopenhauer and Nietzsche's visions of happiness: pleasure and power as substitutes for love“Love as hunger”: the devouring nature of epithemic desireIvan Karamazov's tragic love for life—selective, gut-level, and self-focused“There is still… this wild and perhaps indecent thirst for life in me”Father Zosima's universal love for “every leaf and every ray of God's light”“Love man also in his sin… Love all God's creation”Sonya and Raskolnikov in Crime and Punishment: love as restoration“She loved him and stayed with him—not although he murdered, but because he murdered”God's declaration in Genesis: “And look—it was very good”Hannah Arendt's amor mundi—“I want you to be” as pure affirmationCreation as gift: “Each is itself by being more than itself”Martin Luther on marriage, sex, and delight as godly pleasuresThe flood as hypothetical: divine grief replaces divine destruction“It grieved God to his heart”—grief as a form of agapic love“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all.”Agape over erotic love: not reward and punishment, but faithful presence and care“Agapic love demands nothing… It is free, sovereign to love, humble.”Closing invitation: to live the life of love, under whatever circumstancesProduction NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

What if discipline isn't about becoming someone better—but about learning to live from the truth of who you already are? In this episode, we continue our conversation on discipline—not as punishment or control, but as the sacred practice of forming identity through daily habits of love, truth, and presence. We explore how discipline aligns with our new identity in Christ, and how we help our children grow into that truth—not by force, but by faithfulness. You'll hear stories of real formation—what it looks like in parenting, in marriage, and even in how we relate to ourselves. We talk about the awkward, vulnerable process of “showing up to spring training” after receiving the gift of a new identity—and how discipline is God's invitation to grow into that gift with grace, humility, and trust. This episode is not a list of parenting techniques—it's a reminder that formation happens in the small, sacred choices we make each day to believe what's true and build habits that reflect it. You're in the Right Place If… ✔ You want to help your children live from their identity in Christ—not just earn your approval ✔ You're wondering how to grow into the truth of your own identity when it still feels unfamiliar ✔ You're looking for a better way to parent than control—but you still want real structure and growth ✔ You long for family rhythms that feel secure, grace-filled, and aligned with the kingdom of God Key Takeaways: Discipline isn't punishment—it's the daily, steady work of forming identity and maturity. We're all being formed by something—the only question is… are we choosing it, or drifting into it? Small, intentional habits—meaningful conversations, returning to joy, asking for help—quietly rewrite the story our families live in. You don't have to get it perfect to make it powerful.

The sound of mining — And the sound of money — All across Griqualand West, tent towns mushroomed overnight, teeming with fortune seekers from around the world. Tens of thousands by 1873, all descending on a patch of dusty ground that was soon to become a beacon of development on the landscape. Kimberley. In the modern world, industrial diamonds have hammered the industry business model, China overwhelmingly dominates global production of synthetic industrial diamonds accounting for about 90% of the total total. But in the 19th century, diamonds were still as rare as as teetotaler in a Kimberley tavern. This episode we'll hear about the entrepreneurs both black and white, and the future Robber Baron and colonial Dreamer, Cecil John Rhodes. It was in May 1871 after the harvest at the Rhodes brothers cotton farm in Richmond in Natal had come in, that Rhodes began his long career of harvesting the right connections. Brother Herbert sailed to Natal two years earlier, and now Cecil was helping manage the 250 acre farm, helped by 30 black labourers. Herbert however had heard about the riches discovered in Griqualand West and headed off to the Diamond Fields in early 1871, leaving Cecil to run the show in Natal. Young Cecil attended the annual meeting of the colonies agricultural society where he exhibited samples of their cotton, in attendance were Natal's colonial elite. There were long after-dinner political speeches, all ending with a toast. IN the haze of cigar and tobacco smoke, and a haze of multiple shots of whiskey, one settler called for a man to offer the traditional toast to the Ladies. So it was ironic that Cecil Rhodes rose in response, and thus delivered his first ever public speech according to his friend and biographer, Lewis Mitchell. Ironic because Rhodes would never form a initimate relationship with a woman as far as we know . As he grew more powerful, he would always surround himself with young male private secretaries and later would make one - Neville Pickering, the sole beneficiary of his will. In the Victorian era, being openly homosexual was socially unacceptable and illegal, so any such relationships would have been kept private. We are hampered by a lack of personal diaries or revealing letters from Rhodes himself, making it difficult to reach a firm, irrefutable conclusion about his private life. The scale claim-owners did much of their own manual labour, but for the most part the work was done by black labourers, picking at the ground, smashing the bumps of earth and rock, sieving the lime dust through a coarse wire sieve, rubble thrown aside, what remained placed on a sorting table. A small scraper would be used to spread the rock on the tables, scooping after picking the diamonds out, repeat repeat. In early 1872 Herbert went back to their farm in Richmond to welcome yet another brother, Frank, to South Africa. Cecil was left in charge and suffered under the stress, hard labour in a harsh climate, supervising his business, and a sudden death of his friend John Thompson. He was smoking and drinking too much, breathing in too much dust, dehydrated — and collapsed — to be nursed back to health by John Blades Currey's wife, Mary. He was still only 18 years old and almost died. In his miasmic state, he wrote his will which is prescient, and somewhat theatrical, leaving all his possessions to Britain's Secretary of State for the colonies, Lord Kimberly instead of his family. New promulgations were thus passed by the miners themselves, black people could not stay in the mining camps for longer than two days without a master, they also had to observe a curfew after 9pm. Punishment for failing to observe these rules, 25 lashes or 10 shillings fine. All this at a time when most of the English-speaking world was repealing lashing.
