Episode Transcript
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.
