Summary

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes that sweet, lovely, and wonderful baby carriage.

Then comes our in-laws telling us how to parent.

Then comes our parents spoiling our kids.

Okay, so that may sound a bit dramatic. At least we hope so for your sake. Truthfully, we loved seeing our parents become grandparents. That doesn't mean we haven't had to figure things out along the way, sometimes with difficult conversations. But it does mean that our parents have our hearts. And because they have our hearts, they have incredible influence in how their grandkids are being raised.

In this episode, we go behind the scenes to talk about our own relationship with our parents and how they grandparent our kids.

We also discuss practical ways for unity and honor to be the soil for the intergenerational relationships in your family to flourish.
