Summary
Children are really the supreme gift of marriage and contribute in the highest degree to their parents' welfare. - Gaudium et Spes, 50
Listener questions are back! We had a wonderful time visiting with listeners all over the East Coast and as we traveled we collected questions from them. Here are a few of those questions including how to emotionally handle the mess and chaos that inevitably comes with young children, getting kids to behave at mass, and family of origin issues. We also talk about bringing the Montessori philosophy into how you view your children and the importance of living with purpose. Listen in to our conversation with Katie who asks us these questions from the perspective of "every parent" who deals with these issues on a daily basis.
