Episode Details

We lost our “Zen Bunny” Greeley last week and it was a shock to our family.  How do we deal with the grieving process, and how do we help our children deal with their sadness?  As parents we need to allow our children to grieve, and respect that it’s an individual process.

We also discuss how to handle “disrespect” from our children – are they trying to be mean, or are they trying to communicate something? If we can do our best to not be offended and communicate in a productive way, it will keep our relationships healthy.

Have you seen the movie “Boyhood“?  It’s a special movie and we give a quick review of this incredible film.

We also answer a listener’s question about how to deal with energy vampires.
