The Parenting Style That's Breaking Your Connection With Your Child

A mom posted in a Facebook group, desperate and heartbroken. She goes to church. She gives her daughter love and attention. She does everything the experts told her to do. And her nine-year-old is still disrespectful, angry, and distant every single day.

Sound familiar?

In this episode, Bonnie and Thomas Liotta break down the hidden parenting style that is silently destroying the connection between you and your child. Whether you lean toward strict discipline or gentle redirection, both approaches share the same root problem: control. And control cannot build the relationship your child actually needs.

You will learn why your child was never the problem, what Imago Dei really means for how you see your child every day, the truth about the rod in Scripture and why it was never meant for punishment, and how to shift from correcting behavior to building life skills.

Your child is not a diagnosis. They are not broken. They are a reflection of God, and they need you to see them that way.
