There's a sense of powerlessness that happens for us as parents.
It happens for the kids.
And sometimes when the grandparents see us struggling with that,
they have a sense of powerlessness and that's when they tend to go into this superhero mode where they're giving us all these tips, telling us everything they read, telling us what they should do in this kind of top down way.
And oftentimes the attention is to solve a problem for us when it really just creates more problems.
Thank you, Debbie.
I'm so excited to be here.
Absolutely Debbie.
A lot of us sometimes forget that, you know, when we have families, we have our specific immediate family, but the extended family can be a s really super impactful tool if we leverage those relationships properly.
So yeah, everything you just said.
We are currently a family of four and I say currently because we've had a multi generational living situation in the past.
And so uh my husband and I have two children.
We have a daughter who is seventeen and she's a senior in high school, so that's a big transition going on for us right now.
And then we also have a nine-year-old who is in fourth grade and he's our son.
So we um have two kids, we have an age gap, we have a long marriage, and we are people who really look at family as this broad term that we define on an ongoing basis.
So it's pretty interesting for us.
And I mention it that way because when we were having our second child and we were figuring out our careers and how to be good parents and still have a healthy marriage.
We decided to go out on the limb and create what we call the nuclear family, with the word NEW being nuclear.
And we invited my mother in law to live with us.
And a lot of people think, Oh my gosh, Kenisha, you are absolutely crazy and insane.
