Looking back, I discovered that many of my greatest parenting victories happened when my partner and I communicated well. We did not always agree, but when we listened to each other, respected different points of view, and worked together, our children benefited.
This book is not about avoiding disagreements. Couples and parents will disagree.
As I watch my grandchildren grow and see my adult children navigate the joys and struggles of raising families of their own, I recognize many of the same challenges I faced years ago. Although the world has changed, the heart of parenting has not. Building strong relationships, communicating with intention, and learning from our mistakes remain the foundation of raising healthy, confident children.
