kids like a person's warmth

Love this channel!!

I recently had the misfortune of engaging with Midnight Mom Devotional on Facebook, and the experience left me profoundly disturbed. After commenting on a post that stated, "Tonight we pray for a birth momma, who lovingly gave her baby for adoption," I was blocked for daring to speak the truth about the harsh realities of adoption. This incident revealed much about the book’s content and the troubling mindset behind it. First and foremost, Midnight Mom Devotional promotes a dangerously naive and misleading narrative about adoption. By focusing exclusively on praying for mothers to give up their children, the book completely disregards the profound trauma and lifelong emotional scars that such decisions inflict on both the mothers and the children. It presents adoption as an act of pure love and selflessness, which is a gross oversimplification that ignores the systemic coercion and deep grief often involved. This one-sided and sanitized portrayal is not just misleading; it is harmful and irresponsible. @midnightmomdevotional #adopteevoices #Adoption #Prayer #Motherhood #Abortion #falsenarrative #midnightmomdevotional medium.com/thoughtless-delineation/the-absurdity-of-praying-for-another-womens-child-fa510c7150f9

A strong body is not enough, man looks at the outside, God looks at the heart.

The stereotype of the overprotective/hypervigilant mother is exhausting and fairly useless, especially for mothers of special needs children. How about telling us what mental health professionals get wrong? Those mistakes are more egregious than the ones parents make. After all, we are laypeople not therapists. Please also consider including non-allistic voices in discussion of appropriate therapies. Exposure/behavioral therapies are rarely neurodivergent-affirming - and often they are autism-hostile - for a wide range of documented reasons.

I love her views on what children need, and I think her commentary about the importance of raising children with extended family and in religious communities is incredibly naive. Many of us have escaped abusive extended families and unhealthy churches.

“Concerned about violent video games” Here we go again trotting out this debunked bullshit. This we proven false in the 90s, the 00s, the 10s, and here we are still talking about it

To be fair it's a reflection of the parents themselves. Sort of a similar to the doctor smoking a pack-a-day then telling their client smoking is bad.

Dear Dr. Meeker, I have been listening to you from your days at Focus On The Family and want to thank you for all you do. How can a parent handle Online Screen (Gaming) addiction (plays for over 4 hours & has affected grades) for College Student? 20 years old has refused to see Counselor.

Please are there similar Reset Summer Camps for Digital Detox & Life Skills in other locations e.g., State of Delaware

Love this❤

Lol, my parents said, you do the chores because we told you to, never got the why answered when i asked

Maybe because the most politically radical people go into professions like teaching in order to indoctrinate the kids into believing their ideology over the beliefs of the parents...

There is no conflict between discipline and loving-understanding, it's all a question of reasonable balance

Its a long shot but do you do consults via Zoom?

Well said and may the church of Jesus Christ pay attention both in the assembly and in our homes (parents spend time acquiring materials gains - not bad except when done at the expense of time teaching children at home). May God help me and may the Spirit of God help me to make a difference in my home and within my circle of influence in Jesus name, Amen

Be strong in Character

Yes yes yes ❤❤❤

How does an interview with Tucker have 200 views??? Wtf

Interview starts at 15:34

Thank you for this conversation! We need to discuss this more until that mountain can move this society a little for the good of our children!

Such excellent information.

Money's work was not honest and the things he did to his premiere patient ended in suicides. What a disgraceful villain, and his lying destructive legacy continues. The betrayed children need to get reparation from these ghouls.

Thank you for this wisdom .

Thank you so much for this!

I couldnt see the forest for the trees. I was reactionary. For some reason I was surprised at their sin! Which caused me to see them from a self-righteous perspective and made me react in anger. I was also surprised at how much they destroyed property, but i needed to value people over things and refrain from anger over broken stuff. I was also fearful over the whole area of internet and video games and felt like I was the only one saying no to things like MySpace. All this distorted thinking caused a lack of confidence, anger, and controlling behavior. Also, my 2nd born, a son, struggled with the birth of our 3rd born, a girl. I didn't move in and spend extra time with him, instead I reacted to his demands for negative attention. It turned into a coercive cycle (see Pattersons Coercive Theory) and we ended up in this negative cycle for 16 years. All because I didn't meet some basic needs of his and didnt know how to rebuild the relationship and break out of the cycle. I hope this helps you to help other parents. Mindset and not believing the lies of the enemy are so important. I needed a lot more love and a lot less fear and control.

Abigail, please continue doing what you’re doing and stand up for women’s rights … as a male a true male teacher I stand with you!

As a father who has experienced the challenges and biases within the family court system firsthand, I am wholeheartedly in support of the Good Dad Act. This legislation is not just about fathers' rights; it is about creating a more equitable society that recognizes and values the essential role that fathers play in their children's lives. The Good Dad Act addresses the systemic flaws and biases that have perpetuated the marginalization of fathers within the family court system for far too long. It promotes shared parental responsibility, ensuring that children have the opportunity to maintain strong relationships with both parents. Every child deserves the love, guidance, and involvement of both their mother and father. The Good Dad Act will help level the playing field, empowering fathers to actively participate in their children's upbringing and decision-making. By supporting the Good Dad Act, we are advocating for a legal framework that is fair, just, and reflective of the realities of modern parenting. We are challenging stereotypes and working towards a future where children have equal access to the love and support of both parents, regardless of their gender. I urge everyone to join this movement and raise awareness about the importance of fathers' rights. Together, we can push for the passage of the Good Dad Act at both the state and federal levels, ensuring that fathers are granted the legal protections they deserve and that children can benefit from the active involvement of both parents. Let's create a society where every child can grow up with the love, care, and guidance of their devoted fathers. Together, we can make a difference. #SupportGoodDads #EqualParentingRights#gooddadact docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vQvSKX1gNVTRkHbMyelT20n4rgnLeKelG03Ecq7PT2lRSnjE0C1lociMO67vqkoJfiKlHHi-LCv7glT/pub

Everything said in this podcast is the truth! 💯 This has been so helpful to me as a parent to my 14 yr old daughter! Both my parents talked to me about sex; it is so necessary!

Expecting a child to calm themselves down without loving help from a trusted parent to help them reregulate is old-school parenting and not effective. Sending a child to time out to sit in shame to "figure it out" when they misbehave is not the way to help your child learn how to cooperate and manage their own behavior. It's a technique that teaches them nothing except compliance.

We are against our young kids having phones too! So much evil is on social media, we have to protect our kids! Time on computer is under strict supervision too! Children needs to read, use their imagination, they need to run and play and socialize with their peers! All the violent games available to all children are creating anti-social, unbalanced, depressed, aggressive kids… Parents need to take a stand! PROTECT the CHILDREN!

Thank you for this very insightful dialogue on discipline...I believe peaceful discipline is an effective approach to eliminate violence against children 👍

Incredibly crucial information, thanks to you and your guests for having this important conversation.

I am specifically concerned about the transgender issue and children. This has to be an adult issue. Kids are kids - immature, evolving. Leave them alone!

Love it! I am 36 years old and I have 2 daughters. A 2 and 4 year old and you’ve helped me understand how important it is to give them my best self. I think being a good dad starts with taking care of our selves. Good sleep , eating well, hydrating etc. May sound mundane. Or insignificant, but when you set yourself up to be at your optimum level by doing the small things , it makes the world of a difference. Also on my way home , After working 13hrs shifts. I mentally prepare myself / pray and try and relax . And get ready for the hurricane of putting kids to bed and encountering and tapped out wife 😂 It’s become a habit , but I’m still fine tuning it . But all started with you Dr.M , so thank you so very much

I’m on my final chapters of Lisa’s book and it’s been life changing so far. Great to hear her speak and dive deeper into some of the topics. I still have so many questions 😅🙏🏼👏🏽

The OT says a lot but it's in the NT that the old is truly understood. 🔅💡

This guy a dangerous....

"Wisdom is everything."

"Let's talk and listen!"

"Tactical empathy."
