82: How NOT to Be Your Child's Worst Nightmare

This week, I discuss the following questions:
How can we become best friends with our spouses?
Can we be friends with our children?
Or can we be a parent or a friend but not both?
What should we do if our kids get into trouble?
What if we put effort into our relationships and we don't get the response we're hoping for?
Is unschooling just as much about a parent as it is about a child?
I also talk more about being daring and adventurous parents.
