56: Breaking cycles while parenting two boys (8 & 10yo)

Reesa and her husband grew up with unhealthy parenting patterns modeled in their households, and are working to parent their two boys differently (8 and 10 years old). Reesa shares their approach to breaking cycles, watching the boys gain more independence, family chores, and their "coin" system that the boys use to pay for privileges. Reesa has her own podcast, Real Family Eats, where parents share their struggles while teaching her a recipe. You can find it and more of Reesa's links here.
