Every family has a “gold standard”—a picture of how life should go, how our children should respond, and what the right choices should look like.

But what happens when our adult children choose differently?

In this Best of The Parent Pivot Podcast, Steve and Julia talk about the difference between holding healthy values—and holding our children to our expectations.

The goal isn’t to lower the standard.

It’s to stop using that standard as a measuring stick that damages the relationship.

Sometimes the most loving pivot we can make is giving our adult children room to become who God created them to be.
