13 Habits To Raise Healthy Kids

Podcast

Our kids are the most important members of our family.

It's our job as parents to raise them and prepare them for meeting the challenges of the world.

The challenge of raising healthy, well-adapted kids is harder now than it was for our parents.

There are more social pressures, larger problems, and a much different society than when we were growing up. Yet, human nature and children's physiological needs have not changed.

How can we as parents still meet the needs of our child in a society more difficult to traverse than ever?

On this week's podcast, we look at an article from The Military Wife And Mom and share our thoughts about the habits to raise healthy children.
