Episode 183: When Parents Are Suffering

Feeding The Mouth That Bites You: Parenting Teens Into Adulthood - A podcast by Kenneth Wilgus, Jessica Pfeiffer - Tuesdays

This was a tough episode. When parents are struggling with serious illness or other types of suffering, how should they handle their adolescent kids? Jessica talks about her own, recent diagnosis of multiple myeloma cancer and how it has impacted her adolescent and adult children. Dr. Ken talks about his wife's cancer battle 20 years ago when their children were young. There's a significant difference in how parents should deal with their kids when they are young vs. adolescents. In suffering, parents truly show their faith.
