How do we create an environment where our kids feel safe enough to be fully honest with us, especially when it comes to tough topics like pornography or chastity?

I share a recent conversation with one of my sons and how it made me reflect on the role we, as parents, play in encouraging honesty. Spoiler alert: it’s not just about what our kids are doing, but how we react when they open up to us. I’ll talk about my own mistakes, how I used to try to control everything, and what I’ve learned about the importance of calming my own nerves and really listening.

I also reference a powerful episode from Faith Matters where Joseph Grenny talks about letting go of the idea of the “brochure family” and trusting that “all is well” even when things feel messy.

Tune in as I share some practical tips for how we can be more available, notice our reactions, and ultimately, create a space where our kids can feel safe being honest.
