Together, they discuss how our own childhood experiences shape the way we parent, why attachment relationships matter, the importance of repair after conflict, emotional regulation, and the impact of screens on family connection.

Drawing on more than forty years of experience as a child therapist, school psychological associate, and educator, Janet shares practical insights for parents navigating the challenges of raising children in today's world.
