Holland's communication-based s*x education is more effective in lowering birth, abortion and STI rates than America's just-say-no approach.

As a therapist, I often cringe when reading blog posts or other articles about parenting because parenting advice is often like fad diets, it's fad parenting. I like the historical and cultural perspective on parenting that this article takes. It's a little long but I think this article gives some sound advice for those who are seeking some direction.

Being your child’s dedicated playmate may not be as necessary as many seem to think.

In so many ways I feel that Lubbock is the city that made me. I realize that it wasn’t the city that made me, but the many associations that I had in that city that forever changed me. I’m so grateful for the many people that took a chance by moving to Lubbock or staying in Lubbock so that I cou...

Technology is a wonderful thing but we must be so careful as to how we let our kids use it. Parents should be very thoughtful about phone, computer, and TV use. You cannot assume that your teen's experience is anything like your experience as a teen. Media is very different now and sometimes the consequences can be life changing or even deadly (I'm referring to suicides related to online bullying). Please do not be afraid to be the strict parent or the parent who asks questions. Educate yourself. Your child needs your help to navigate the many things thrown at them each day.

Each of us has a Facebook life or Instagram life. It is the life where skies are blue, smiles are big, and frustrations are funny. Yet, Facebook life isn't fake. Skies really are blue, the smiles are genuine, and misfortunes can be funny. But it is only part, or just the highlights, of our lives. I

In case you need a laugh and you feel like you are the only one who struggles in their marriage.

It's a thrill, but watch out for those velociraptors.

This morning I started out my day by listening to Aaron Watson. As I listened to these songs, I remembered the way Isaac would sing and dance. He'd sometimes do this little dance where he planted one foot on the ground and use the other foot to turn himself around. And I could just imagine h

This Father's Day was different from last year. Wyatt will be five-years-old soon and Rose is now three-years-old. Last year, the kids didn't really understand the meaning of Father's Day. But now that the kids are in daycare, they have more awareness. Throughout the school week the kids wor
