53.75 Part 3: What Are My Child’s Needs? Delight & Boundaries with Authors Jeffrey & Amy Olrick

*This is Part 3* Calling all parents! I am chatting with authors Jeffrey and Amy Olrick today in a 3 part interview all about how we can meet our child’s needs in a practical, simple and God-centered way. Their book is called “The 6 Needs Of Every Child: Empowering Parents And Kids Through The Science Of Connection” and it has been a big blessing in my life. As parents themselves, Jeffrey and Amy bring a unique voice to this idea of needs. The simple approach they take combined with Jeffrey’s expertise as a child clinical psychologist, makes this book a must-read for all parents! You can preorder it now and it will be available to the public on June 9, 2020. I am thrilled that I got a chance to read it in advance and can totally vouch for it In Part 1 of our conversation (Episode 53), we are laying the foundation for the conversation by beginning with the science of attachment and why that matters. We are also beginning the discussion on how we can delight in our children. In Part 2 (Episode 53.5), we talk about how Jesus rejoices over us and how that relates to delighting in our children and we discuss why boundaries matter too. In Part 3 (this episode) we get super practical about handling bedtime battles and how to set loving boundaries with our kids. I cannot wait for you to learn from Amy and Jeffrey’s years of wisdom, trial and error, research and their openness and willingness to share with others parents. Enjoy this talk and I know you will walk away feeling equipped and refreshed in your parenthood journey!
