Parenting Teens: The Biggest Job We’ll Ever Have Podcast

“Nothing is for sure when it comes to our kids; we do the best we know with what we have at the time.” - Dan Scott

Dan Scott is the author of Caught In Between: Engage Your Preteens Before They Check Out; he is also a pastor and writer for Orange Books and speaks to teens and parents about child and adolescent development. He has written several devotionals for kids and believes that faith is as important on Wednesday as it is on the day they are in church or synagogue.

He also believes in our familiar phrase: “Parents are the primary teachers and the home is the primary classroom”.

Podcast 98: Christian Buck: The Sport of School

“It’s About Effort, Not IQ” – Title of Chapter 10: The Sport of School, by Christian Buck

There are so many great quotes and teachings in The Sport of School: How to Help Student-Athletes Improve their Grades for High School, College, and Beyond! that it was hard to choose the one that would catch your eye and make you want to listen to this podcast. Here are a few more:

“Is our goal to prepare our students for the next four years or the next 40?”
“While I am a big proponent of goals, I am a greater proponent of a clear vision.”
“True change on the part of your student involves change for you as well, and the recognition that ultimately your student must make the decision to motivate himself or herself.”

Sound familiar?

Christian Buck left a career on Wall Street, got an advanced degree in sports psychology and now works with students to help them see that school can be approached the same way they approach sports in their lives: with vision, goals and hard work. There’s great advice here for parents wanting to help their kids in the same way.

Podcast 100: Joe Gauld: Kids Read Our Hearts

“Kids can’t identify with our achievements.” Joe Gauld, Founder, Hyde School

It’s our 100^th podcast! And our very special guest is Joe Gauld, founder of The Hyde School in Bath, ME. I asked Joe to be the guest on our 100^th show because it all started with him.

He founded Hyde School to prepare kids for life; after five years, he realized that unless he also reached their parents, he wasn’t helping kids in the best way possible, because the home is the primary classroom and parents are the primary teachers.

The parent program at Hyde is called The Biggest Job Family Program, where parents learn how to put truth over harmony and focus on attitude over aptitude. They also learn that vulnerability is an important trait in parenting.

Welcome to our 100^th podcast!
