Parenting with the 5 Love Languages

Have you heard of the 5 Love Languages?

Parenthood is like training a dog

In this episode, we talk about classical conditioning and how it is WE as parents that create our own problems when it comes to parenting. Conditioning is constant BUT are you conditioning your children OR are they conditioning you!  Who is training whom?
