"On this episode of Focus on the Family with Jim Daly, Matt and Lisa Jacobson sit down to share timeless, practical wisdom on intentionally loving your children at every stage of life—from toddlers to teens to adult sons and daughters.
With eight children of their own, the Jacobsons offer heartfelt stories, hard-earned lessons, and biblical encouragement for parents who want to build strong identities, lasting relationships, and homes marked by affirmation and respect. Whether you're raising boys, guiding daughters, or learning how to relate to adult children, this conversation is full of hope and practical tools.
🔹 How to balance quality time and quantity time
🔹 The power of “messaging” your child’s identity
🔹 Affirming sons and daughters in life-changing ways
🔹 Letting go without losing connection
🔹 Building respect and strong adult relationships
Parenting isn’t about control—it’s about influence. And when children feel respected, affirmed, and deeply loved, the fruit lasts for generations." from the video introduction
