As parents, we want to protect our kids. But if you spend too much time trying to control your teen's world, you'll never have the chance to teach them how to live in the real one. In today's show, Mark Gregston and Wayne Shepherd address the challenges faced by Christian parents who are navigating the delicate balance between setting boundaries and allowing their teens the freedom to explore. They delve into the issues of saying "no" too often and explore the importance of finding opportunities to say "yes" to help teens mature. Listen in!
