12 AUG 2026 · What is it like to grow up as an intense, strong-willed child—and how does that intensity follow you into adulthood and marriage? In this special Q&A episode with my son, Casey reveals what he’d tell his 8-year-old self and what “Don’t assume my intensity means I’m not happy” means. The unscripted moments are gold: when you had bad moments, were you internalizing anger at me for being overbearing or just thinking you were a bad kid who didn’t fit in? I think you will find his raw, honest insight very helpful. P.S. LET YOUR KIDS LISTEN to the Calm Parenting Bundle.

Adoption #2: Kids Who Never Seem Full or Happy, Unhealthy Attachments, Separation & Sleep Issues ...
7 AUG 2026 · In this special episode, I address these specific issues from parents of adopted kids: Our son will attach himself to anyone who gives him positive or negative attention. Our daughter always wants to be attached to only me and won’t separate. Our child has a \"love bucket\" with a giant hole in the bottom. Our kids never seem full, even with so much constant attention and love. It seems like she is unhappy and can\'t see the \"good\" in the day if ONE thing doesn\'t go her way. Ours was exposed to drugs, will not sleep, and becomes destructive. I want to give you practical strategies and hope. Please share this with support groups and other adoptive parents who need both encouragement and practical tools to help the kids they love so much.
