About this listen

Life rarely goes according to plan, and parenting is no exception. Dr. Roger Smith discusses the vital shift from total parental control to fostering flexibility in your children. Using travel mishaps as a metaphor, he explores how parents can model emotional balance when things go wrong—whether it’s a spilled glass of juice or a missed opportunity. Learn how to train your children to navigate multiple pathways, handle disappointment without a meltdown, and understand that making a mistake isn't a moral failure. By staying pleasant when you have to "flex," you teach your children the essential life skill of enjoying the journey, even when the path changes.
