Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Sibling Savvy: A Market Adventure in Family Unity Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-11-03-08-38-20-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Buda piacán nyüzsgött az élet.En: Life was bustling at the Buda market.Hu: Az őszi nap fénye megcsillant a színes szöveteken és a friss zöldségek fényes felületén.En: The autumn sun sparkled on the colorful fabrics and the shiny surfaces of fresh vegetables.Hu: A levegő tele volt fűszerek illatával és a baromfiak zajával.En: The air was filled with the scent of spices and the noise of poultry.Hu: Réka, Bence és Lajos a sokaságban haladtak, szemüket és fülüket használva, hogy mindent elérjenek, amire csak szükségük volt a családjuk télire való felkészítéséhez.En: Réka, Bence, and Lajos moved through the crowd, using their eyes and ears to get everything they needed to prepare their family for winter.Hu: Réka, a legidősebb, vezette testvéreit.En: Réka, the eldest, led her siblings.Hu: Szeme gyorsan végigpásztázta a kínálatot, miközben igyekezett a lehető legjobb ajánlatot megszerezni.En: Her eyes quickly scanned the offerings as she tried to get the best deal possible.Hu: Bence, a középső, szemmel láthatóan másfélét keresett.En: Bence, the middle child, was visibly looking for something else.Hu: Egy közeli standnál egy kereskedő érdekes munkát kínált neki.En: At a nearby stall, a vendor offered him an interesting job.Hu: Lajos, a legfiatalabb, örömmel figyelte a sokféle terméket, de Réka rászólt, hogy tartsa össze a gondolatait.En: Lajos, the youngest, watched the variety of products with delight, but Réka told him to keep his thoughts together.Hu: A piac harsány zajai között Réka gyors döntésekre kényszerült.En: Amidst the loud noises of the market, Réka was forced to make quick decisions.Hu: Az árak ma sokkal magasabbak voltak, mint remélték, és Bence tekintete újra meg újra elkóborolt a munkalehetőség felé.En: Prices were much higher today than they had hoped, and Bence's gaze kept wandering towards the job opportunity.Hu: Réka egy pillanatra megállt, mély levegőt vett, és odafordult Bencéhez.En: Réka paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and turned to Bence.Hu: „Tudom, hogy izgalmasnak találod a kereskedést – mondta Réka szelíden – de most kell segítened.En: "I know you find trading exciting," Réka said gently, "but you need to help us now.Hu: Nem engedhetjük meg magunknak, hogy mindez kicsússzon a kezünkből.En: We can't afford to let this slip through our fingers."Hu: ”Bence látta nővére komolyságát és megértette a helyzet súlyát.En: Bence saw his sister's seriousness and understood the gravity of the situation.Hu: Nodásait megacélozta, és visszatért Réka mellé.En: He steeled his resolve and returned to Réka's side.Hu: „Igazad van,” mondta csendesen, majd rögtön hozzátette, „de talán később beszélhetnék vele?En: "You're right," he said quietly, and then quickly added, "but perhaps I can talk to him later?"Hu: ”Ennek hallatán Réka elmosolyodott.En: Hearing this, Réka smiled.Hu: „Megyünk oda, ha mindent elrendeztünk,” ígérte.En: "We'll go there once we've taken care of everything," she promised.Hu: Végül a testvérek sikerült alkut kötniük a szomszédos standok eladóival.En: In the end, the siblings managed to make a deal with the sellers at the neighboring stalls.Hu: Réka ügyességének és Bence lelkes segítségének köszönhetően elegendő készletet tudtak venni, hogy a tél ne jelentsen nehézséget számukra.En: Thanks to Réka's skill and Bence's enthusiastic help, they were able to purchase enough supplies so that winter would not be a hardship for them.Hu: Az utolsó zsák zöldség elrendezése után Bence elsietett a kereskedőhöz, aki örömmel fogadta.En: After arranging the last sack of vegetables, Bence hurried over to the trader, who welcomed him with delight.Hu: Ahogy ők hárman hazafelé indultak a piaci nyüzsgésből, Réka rájött, hogy a testvérei vágyait is helyet kell kapniuk a család életében.En: As the three of them headed home from the market bustle, Réka realized that her siblings' desires must also have a place in the family's life.Hu: Bence pedig megértette, hogy az álmai mellett a családi felelősségeket is viselnie kell.En: Bence, in turn, understood that alongside his dreams, he must also bear the family responsibilities.Hu: A piaci kalandjuk így tanulságos, mégis kielégítő módon zárult.En: Their market adventure concluded in a way that was both instructive and satisfying.Hu: Együtt, egy lépéssel közelebb kerültek ahhoz, hogy ne csak a télre, de a jövőre is felkészülten állhassanak.En: Together, they took a step closer to being prepared not just for the winter, but for the future as well.Hu: Az őszi nap lassan nyílt utat a hidegebb hónapoknak, de Réka, Bence és Lajos, az összezárt testvéri kötelék erejével, immár még felkészültebbek voltak minden elébük kerülő kihívásra.En: The autumn sun was slowly paving the way for the colder months, but Réka, Bence, and Lajos, with the strength of their close-knit sibling bond, were now more ready than ever for any challenges that came their way.

The Bible portrays sibling rivalry through stories such as Cain and Abel, Jacob and Esau, Joseph and his brothers, Isaac and Ishmael, and Leah and Rachel. These accounts reveal how jealousy, pride, and favoritism can breed conflict, deceit, and even violence within families. Rivalry is described in Scripture as a “work of the flesh” that causes chaos, dishonors God, and undermines unity among believers (Galatians 5:19–21; James 3:16).Yet, amid these cautionary tales, the Bible also offers hope. Through examples like the reconciliations of Jacob and Esau and Joseph with his brothers, it emphasizes repentance, forgiveness, and divine restoration. Ultimately, Scripture calls believers to reject rivalry and embrace love, humility, and harmony as “brothers and sisters in Christ.”Causes of Sibling RivalryCompetition for attention: Children may vie for parental love and approval, especially when one receives more care or praise.Developmental differences: Conflicts arise as siblings go through different stages with varying needs and goals.Personality clashes: Differences in temperament or closeness in age can intensify rivalry.Identity and comparison: Constant comparison fosters jealousy as siblings seek to define their worth and uniqueness.Parental favoritism and jealousy: As seen in stories like Cain and Abel or Jacob and Esau, favoritism and envy can lead to resentment, conflict, and sin.Remedies for Sibling RivalryRecognize God's purpose: Like Jacob and Joseph, conflicts can become opportunities for growth and divine reconciliation.Pursue harmony: Scripture teaches that peace among brothers and sisters honors God and strengthens families.Embrace spiritual family: The New Testament calls believers to see one another as “brothers and sisters in Christ,” practicing unity and grace.Honor diversity: Celebrate each child's unique gifts and teach that every person has value and purpose in God's design.Cultivate humility and love: Following Philippians 2:3, treat others as more important than yourself, replacing rivalry with kindness and compassion. Find us on Apple iTunes, Spotify, PandoraFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/EnrichedPInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/enriched_perspectives/YouTube:   @Enriched_Perspectives

We’re getting into questions like, what happens when siblings fall into familiar roles? How can parents nurture healthy relationships among their children?

How do you talk to your younger kids about LGBTQ topics when an older sibling identifies as LGBTQ? That's one of the most common—and difficult—questions parents and grandparents ask. Today on The Bridge Between Us Podcast, Melinda Patrick is joined by Elizabeth Urbanowicz, author, teacher, and host of the Foundational Worldview podcast, to discuss how to approach these conversations biblically, truthfully, and compassionately. Together, Melinda and Elizabeth tackle three key questions: 1️⃣ How can we protect (and prepare) our younger children when an older sibling embraces an LGBTQ identity? 2️⃣ What's the best way to discuss LGBTQ topics in a way that's both biblical and filled with grace? 3️⃣ How do we teach our children to love others well—without affirming what Scripture calls sin? In this episode, you'll discover: Why "protecting" your children isn't the goal—and what to do instead Three practical steps to prepare your younger children when a sibling or family member identifies as LGBTQ How to overcome the fear of saying or doing the wrong thing Whether you're a parent, grandparent, or family member seeking wisdom and peace in a divided culture, this conversation will help you walk in truth and love—right where God has placed you. *Please share this episode with pastors and ministry leaders - they are always in search of biblically aligned resources to help those they are shepherding *There is another family out there searching for hope and help - be a resource and share this episode with them.

Sibling relationships can be some of the most loving — and challenging — connections kids can experience. Sue Dominus, award winning New York Times journalist and author of The Family Dynamic: A Journey into the Mystery of Sibling Success, joins Elise Hu to explore how parents can best support multiple kids. Dominus shares tangible advice to creating safe and supportive homes by listening to our kids, intentionally creating space for them as individuals, and encouraging passions without pressure.Key takeaways for parents:Help one sibling to have a ripple effect of helping all siblings. See and make space for your kids as the individuals they are, rather than siblings.Encourage your kid's interests and hobbies by enjoying the hobby with them, rather than insisting on their improvement or ambition.Prioritize one-on-one time with each of your kids, to better understand who they are.Address toxic or cruel behavior between siblings seriously: family therapy is always an option.⏱️ Timestamps:Keep the conversation going at home with our FREE Conversation Kit companion guide: [LINK]Follow Susan Dominus on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suedominus/New episodes every Tuesday:YouTube: https://swap.fm/l/P8iCjNFnIWI7kTmU0vmkApple: https://swap.fm/l/kCnCRNdWkpuYYbyzyE77Spotify: https://swap.fm/l/SOQe4gSHh3vVIwPGFDetOr wherever you get your podcasts.

Hi Parents! Sibling rivalry. Friend drama. Conflict that seems to pop up out of nowhere. For parents of teens, it can feel exhausting and confusing to know how much to intervene or when to step back. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rosina McAlpine, parenting expert, author, and CEO of Win Win Parenting, to explore why sibling and peer rivalry happens, and how we can guide our teens through it without adding fuel to the fire. Dr. Rosina shares insights from research that reveal the three main ways kids resolve conflict - coercion, negotiation, and disengagement - and explains why teens often use very different approaches with siblings compared to friends. We also dive into the fascinating role of birth order, what to watch out for when rivalry crosses into bullying, and the values-based strategies parents can use to help their teens build healthier, stronger relationships. More About Dr. Rosina: Dr. Rosina McAlpine is an internationally recognized parenting expert, author, and CEO of Win Win Parenting.

Story Transcript:Hu: Őszi nap van Budapesten, a Szépművészeti Múzeumban.En: It's an autumn day in Budapest, at the Szépművészeti Múzeum (Museum of Fine Arts).Hu: A levelek lassan hullanak a Városliget fáiról, a hűvös szellő pedig beáramlik a szélesen nyitott ajtókon.En: The leaves slowly fall from the trees in Városliget, and the cool breeze flows in through the wide open doors.Hu: Áron a múzeum impozáns bejáratánál áll, és mély levegőt vesz.En: Áron stands at the museum's impressive entrance and takes a deep breath.Hu: Vágyik arra, hogy újra összekösse a kapcsolatot testvéreivel, Júliával és Bencével.En: He longs to reconnect with his siblings, Júlia and Bence.Hu: Bár a múltban sok félreértés történt közöttük, ma szeretne végre pontot tenni a régóta tartó feszültség végére.En: Although there were many misunderstandings between them in the past, today he wants to finally put an end to the long-standing tension.Hu: Júlia érkezik elsőként.En: Júlia arrives first.Hu: Mindig is imádta a művészetet, és azonnal odavan a múzeum varázsáért.En: She's always loved art, and she's immediately captivated by the magic of the museum.Hu: Széles mosollyal üdvözli Áront, de mindketten érzik a kimondatlan dolgok súlyát.En: With a broad smile, she greets Áron, but both feel the weight of unspoken words.Hu: Nem sokkal később Bence is csatlakozik hozzájuk.En: Not long after, Bence joins them.Hu: Ő a legfiatalabb, és gyakran érzi úgy, hogy nem tud megfelelni idősebb testvéreinek.En: He is the youngest and often feels that he cannot live up to his older siblings.Hu: Ahogy belépnek a múzeum belső tereibe, a magas ablakokon átszűrődő napfény megvilágítja a magyar mesterek műveit.En: As they enter the interior of the museum, the sunlight filtering through the tall windows illuminates the works of Hungarian masters.Hu: Áron vezetni kezdi őket a kiállítások között, remélve, hogy a közös élmények oldják a köztük lévő feszültséget.En: Áron begins to lead them through the exhibitions, hoping that shared experiences will ease the tension between them.Hu: Megállnak egy gyönyörű tájkép előtt, ami mindannyiukat emlékezteti azokra a kirándulásokra, amelyeken még gyerekkorukban vettek részt, együtt a családdal.En: They stop in front of a beautiful landscape painting that reminds them all of those childhood trips they took together with the family.Hu: Azonban, amikor egy másik festmény elé érnek, amely a régen elhunyt édesanyjukat idézi fel bennük, az elfojtott érzelmek felszínre törnek.En: However, when they reach another painting that evokes memories of their long-deceased mother, suppressed emotions surface.Hu: Júlia halkan megjegyzi, mennyire hiányzik neki az anyjuk, és mennyire nehéz volt számára az utóbbi időszak.En: Júlia softly remarks how much she misses their mother and how difficult the recent period has been for her.Hu: Bence beismeri, hogy mindig is azt hitte, nem elég jó, és emiatt távolságot tartott.En: Bence admits that he always thought he wasn't good enough, and hence, kept his distance.Hu: Áron megérti, hogy ő is hozzájárult a félreértésekhez azzal, hogy sosem beszélt őszintén a saját érzéseiről.En: Áron realizes that he also contributed to the misunderstandings by never speaking honestly about his own feelings.Hu: A következő percekben érzelmes vita alakul ki.En: In the following moments, an emotional discussion unfolds.Hu: Az őszinte szavak és könnyek megtörik a jég hideg burkát.En: Candid words and tears break the icy shell of distance.Hu: Bár kezdetben fájdalmas, ez a nyitottság végül közelebb hozza őket egymáshoz.En: While initially painful, this openness ultimately brings them closer.Hu: A festmény előtt összefonódva, a múzeum csendjében, az idő most megállni látszik.En: Entwined in front of the painting, in the silence of the museum, time seems to stand still.Hu: Rájönnek, hogy bár a múltat nem lehet megváltoztatni, de a jelen pillanatait saját döntéseik formálják.En: They realize that although the past cannot be changed, the moments of the present are shaped by their own choices.Hu: Amikor elhagyják a múzeumot, a nap már alacsonyan jár.En: As they leave the museum, the sun is already low in the sky.Hu: Mindhárman érzik, hogy valami megváltozott köztük.En: All three feel that something has changed between them.Hu: A régi sérelmek ellenére újraéledt bennük a kötődés.En: Despite past grievances, a sense of connection has reawakened.Hu: Áron, Júlia és Bence együtt mosolyognak és nevetnek, mintha az évek alatt felgyülemlett távolság sosem létezett volna.En: Áron, Júlia, and Bence smile and laugh together as if the distance accumulated over the years never existed.Hu: Áron ráébred, hogy bár nem tudja tökéletessé tenni a kapcsolatukat, de képes létrehozni olyan pillanatokat, amelyek összekapcsolják őket.En: Áron realizes that, although he cannot make their relationship perfect, he can create moments that connect them.Hu: Júlia úgy érzi, végre meghallgatták és értik őt, míg Bence magabiztosabban tekint a jövőbe, tudva, hogy a helye biztos a családban.En: Júlia feels she has finally been heard and understood, while Bence looks to the future with more confidence, knowing his place is secure within the family.Hu: Így, a napsugárral simogatott őszi nap végén, három testvér nyugalommal a szívében indul haza, készen a jövő kihívásaira, együtt.En: Thus, at the end of this sun-kissed autumn day, the three siblings set off home with peace in their hearts, ready to face the challenges of the future, together.

moments perduts.En: They laughed together, finding joy in those lost moments.Ca: Després de la música, Martí va dir amb un somriure als llavis, "potser podríem deixar això enrere, Núria.En: After the music, Martí said with a smile on his lips, "maybe we could leave this behind, Núria.Ca: No cal oblidar, només començar de nou.En: We don't need to forget, just start anew."Ca: ""Ho vull," va

This week, we're kicking off a new mini-series here on the podcast that we're calling The Sibling Sit Down. Over the next couple of weeks, we will be digging into the bonds that have formed us and shaped us, the relationships that challenge us, and everything in between. We have found that the relationship with our siblings is often very formative — some of the most formative relationships we will have in our lives. We don't talk about them that much, and so we're hoping that with this mini-series, we can change that narrative just a little. In this first episode, it's an Ask Dr. Joy episode where I will be answering questions that have been submitted by our community members over in our Patreon channel. Ask Dr. Joy is typically an exclusive Patreon series, but we thought we'd bring it over here to the podcast to kick off this special mini-series all about siblings. Today, we're tackling three powerful questions: How do you navigate grief while honoring the bond you had with a sibling? How do you build healthy bonds in blended families with new siblings? How do you heal a volatile or contentious sibling relationship? About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves. Resources & Announcements Grief Share: griefshare.org The Gift of Grief by Dr. Ajita Robinson Session 31: Dr. Ajita Robinson on Grief Session 162: Processing Our Collective Grief Session 335: Navigating Painful Emotions Around the Holidays You can now catch episodes of the Therapy for Black Girls podcast on YouTube.

In this episode, I explore the dynamics of sibling and group play therapy sessions in Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT). I walk through why and when it makes sense to pair siblings together in the playroom—especially when there's a shared experience like divorce or trauma, or a relational issue like constant conflict. I also share considerations for pairing unrelated children in group sessions, including ideal age ranges, complementary personalities, and shared goals. You'll hear about practical strategies for managing the extra complexity in these sessions, including the importance of using children's names consistently, documenting carefully, and maintaining attunement to each child as well as their relationship. I also talk about how group dynamics naturally encourage kids toward emotional balance and regulation. Whether you've been hesitant to try sibling or group sessions, or you're already offering them and want to be more intentional, this episode offers insights to help you feel more confident and prepared.

more:fluentfiction.com/no/episode/2025-10-17-22-34-02-no Story Transcript:No: Det var en kjølig høstvind som sveipet over Bergens gater, og farget bladene utenfor de store vinduene på psykiatrisk avdeling i vakre nyanser av rødt og gult.En: It was a chilly autumn wind that swept over the streets of Bergen, coloring the leaves outside the large windows of the psychiatric ward in beautiful shades of red and yellow.No: Inne i de stille gangene var duften av nytraktet kaffe blandet med lukten av rengjøringsmiddel.En: Inside the quiet corridors, the scent of freshly brewed coffee mixed with the smell of cleaning agents.No: Det var en merkelig blanding av varme og sterilitet.En: It was a strange blend of warmth and sterility.No: Sigrid gikk inn i bygningen med en klump i magen.En: Sigrid walked into the building with a knot in her stomach.No: Hun hadde alltid følt seg som en beskyttende storesøster for Einar, men nå følte hun seg overveldet.En: She had always felt like a protective older sister to Einar, but now she felt overwhelmed.No: Broren hennes, bare et par år yngre enn henne, hadde nylig fått et sammenbrudd.En: Her brother, just a couple of years younger than her, had recently had a breakdown.No: Hun besøkte ham så ofte hun kunne, men hver gang fryktet hun at hun ikke gjorde nok.En: She visited him as often as she could, but each time she feared she wasn't doing enough.No: Einar satt ved et bord i oppholdsrommet, stirrende ut i luften.En: Einar was sitting at a table in the common room, staring into space.No: Han så opp da han hørte Sigrid komme, men han smilte ikke.En: He looked up when he heard Sigrid coming, but he didn't smile.No: Ordene kom ut nølende.En: The words came out hesitantly.No: "Hei, Sigrid.En: "Hi, Sigrid."No: ""Hei, Einar," svarte hun, prøvende å holde stemmen rolig.En: "Hi, Einar," she replied, trying to keep her voice steady.No: "Hvordan har du det i dag?En: "How are you today?"No: "Han trakk på skuldrene, en taus gest som sa mer enn ord kunne.En: He shrugged, a silent gesture that said more than words could.No: Mikkel, den unge sykepleieren som ofte var sammen med Einar, kom bort til dem.En: Mikkel, the young nurse who was often with Einar, came over to them.No: "Einar har hatt en bedre dag i dag," sa Mikkel med et oppmuntrende smil.En: "Einar has had a better day today," Mikkel said with an encouraging smile.No: Sigrid nikket og prøvde å smile tilbake, men hennes hjerte var tungt.En: Sigrid nodded and tried to smile back, but her heart was heavy.No: Hun satte seg ved siden av broren.En: She sat down next to her brother.No: "Jeg har tenkt mye på deg.En: "I've been thinking a lot about you.No: Jeg vil være her for deg.En: I want to be here for you."No: "Einar svarte ikke umiddelbart.En: Einar didn't respond immediately.No: "Jeg vil ikke være til bry," sa han til slutt, knapt hørbart.En: "I don't want to be a burden," he finally said, barely audible.No: Sigrid følte en vond klump i halsen av skyld og utilstrekkelighet.En: Sigrid felt a painful lump in her throat of guilt and inadequacy.No: "Du er aldri til bry, Einar.En: "You're never a burden, Einar.No: Jeg vil bare at du skal vite hvor mye jeg bryr meg.En: I just want you to know how much I care."No: "Etter en stunds stillhet, med bare lyden av bladenes rasling utenfor og dempede samtaler i rommet, tok Mikkel ordet.En: After a moment of silence, with only the sound of rustling leaves outside and muted conversations in the room, Mikkel spoke up.No: "Einar, kanskje du kan prøve å si noe annet til Sigrid?En: "Einar, maybe you can try to say something else to Sigrid?"No: "Einar så lenge på søsteren sin.En: Einar looked at his sister for a long time.No: Til slutt trakk han et dypt pust.En: Finally, he took a deep breath.No: "Jeg er bare så redd, Sigrid.En: "I'm just so scared, Sigrid.No: Redd for å skuffe deg.En: Scared of disappointing you.No: For å ikke bli bedre.En: Of not getting better."No: "Det var som en barriere brøt, og i det øyeblikket forstod Sigrid.En: It was as if a barrier had broken, and in that moment Sigrid understood.No: "Vi kan få til dette sammen," sa hun med ny beslutsomhet.En: "We can do this together," she said with new determination.No: "Små steg, ok?En: "Small steps, okay?No: Jeg vil være her så mye som mulig.En: I'll be here as much as I can.No: Vi gjør dette i ditt tempo.En: We'll do this at your pace."No: "Mikkel smilte igjen, denne gangen til Sigrid.En: Mikkel smiled again, this time at Sigrid.No: "Det høres ut som en plan," sa han varmt.En: "That sounds like a plan," he said warmly.No: Tårene som truet med å bryte ut hos Einar ble stoppet av et svakt smil.En: The tears that threatened to break out in Einar were stopped by a faint smile.No: "Takk," mumlet han.En: "Thanks," he murmured.No: Den ettermiddagen forlot Sigrid den psykiatriske avdelingen med et lettere hjerte.En: That afternoon, Sigrid left the psychiatric ward with a lighter heart.No: Hun forsto nå at hennes tilstedeværelse, hennes vilje til å lytte, var mer enn nok.En: She now understood that her presence, her willingness to listen, was more than enough.No: Og Einar, med den støtten fra både henne og

The Unseen Sibling: Rebecca Robinson's Journey Through Love, Loss, and HopeRebecca Robinson grew up in a home marked by both deep love and quiet sacrifice. Her older sister, Kara, was born with severe Cerebral Palsy. From the beginning, Kara required round-the-clock care, medical equipment, and endless patience — needs her parents met with unwavering devotion and compassion. Their home was filled with the tenderness of a family bound together by something far stronger than circumstance: love.But amid the visible weight her parents carried, Rebecca faced an invisible burden of her own. As the younger sibling, she often felt the pressure to be “the easy one.” She learned not to complain, not to need too much, and not to add stress to her already overwhelmed parents. This quiet phenomenon, known as Glass Child Syndrome, left Rebecca feeling transparent.“I didn't want to be a burden,” she shared in a recent episode of the Cedarville Stories podcast. “My parents were doing everything they could for Kara. I just didn't want to take up more space.”Now a 2025 graduate of Cedarville University, Rebecca has taken her story and transformed it into a gift for others. Her children's book, Penelope Panda's Peculiar Family, gives voice to the complex emotions that siblings of children with disabilities often experience — grief, love, confusion, and resilience. With warmth and whimsy, it helps families talk about what often goes unsaid.Rebecca's heart for ministry doesn't stop at home. Her book is being translated into Japanese to address a culture where disabilities often remain hidden in silence. She hopes it will open doors for compassion, healing, and Gospel conversations.Though Kara has since passed, Rebecca holds fast to her faith. “She's with Christ now,” she says. “And while my past shaped me, my identity is in the hope of what's to come.”From the quiet corners of her childhood to the global impact of her words, Rebecca's story is one of grace woven through pain — a light shining through even the most delicate glass.https://share.transistor.fm/s/4fb72e3ehttps://youtu.be/StvgyN4CC2U
