Boundaries for Kids & Teens: Raising Peaceful, Respectful Children

Send a question or topic you want to hear In part two of their series on peace and boundaries, pastors Bryce and Colette Schaffer dig into one of the toughest parts of parenting: setting boundaries for your kids and teens without losing your peace — or theirs. From toddler meltdowns and headbutting toddlers to teenagers testing curfew and pushing back on rules, Bryce and Colette walk through real, lived-out examples from raising their own three kids and now grandparenting. You'll learn why consistency matters more than the boundary itself, how to "preempt" hard moments before they happen, why teenagers push boundaries the same way you'd test a roller coaster harness, and how to root every boundary you set in your family's belief system rather than just "because I said so." This episode is for the mom who feels like she's negotiating with a toddler in the cereal aisle, and the dad wondering if his teenager will ever respect a curfew again. Boundaries, done right, aren't about control — they're an extension of the peace God wants for your home. Listen in, and remember to bring hope home to your life today.
