  • About the Guest

  • Not every day is election day but on that day it's great to be able to cast my vote. To be heard is a privilege. Families are not democracies. Parents, stepparents, grandparents, whoever are the unelected leaders but they're not dictators either. Wise is the parent who helps each family member find a way to have a voice. It's not a vote, parents are still parents, but an opportunity to be heard. Listen to each other, share, discuss, and at times debate. Above all, talk to God and listen to Him.

Ron: I just voted, and it feels great.

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.

Ron: Not every day is election day but when that day rolls around it’s really great to be able to cast my vote. To be heard is a privilege. Families are not democracies. Parents, stepparents, grandparents, whoever are the unelected leaders but they’re not dictators either. Wise is the parent who lets each member of the family have a voice especially if there’s a big decision to be made. It’s not a vote, parents are still parents, but an opportunity to be heard.

Find ways to give kids of every age in your family a voice. Listen to each other, share, discuss, and at times debate. And above all, talk to God and listen to Him. For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
