Couples Edition-Are Pressure and Standards Good or Harmful?

It's Couples Edition time again! This week, Derek and Jess dive into the complex issue of how hard is too hard when it comes to pushing your kids...

So often in our modern society, we see kids being held to less and less of a standard. We have turned into a culture of "if it feels good do it" and that has become a problem. Everywhere we look it seems like there are spoiled, entitled, ungrateful little turds and why is that happening? Is it because of a lack of standards? Derek and Jess think so.

We all wonder if we are being too hard or too soft on our kids. If we push them hard they might rebel but if we go too soft they won't build character. Where is the line?

Derek and Jess do their best to navigate these questions and their overall parenting philosophy that will help push the discussion of how we can raise the best kids possible.
