What Parents Are Really Asking: A Best of Conversation

This special episode answers the questions parents are actually asking, in real time, about real struggles.

Host Scott Jones, Executive Director of Stillwater Academy, and Producer Steve Cutler, addresses twelve of the most resonant questions from listeners and parents, covering everything from escalation and power struggles to the neuroscience of naming feelings. Not theory for theory’s sake — just practical insight rooted in clinical experience and attachment research.
In this episode:
   •    Why today’s teens aren’t just “too sensitive” — they’re overloaded
   •    What’s actually happening neurologically in a power struggle with your teen
   •    The Iceberg Effect: why the behavior you see isn’t the problem you’re dealing with
   •    How to “regulate before you correct” — and what that looks like in a real moment
   •    Why taking responsibility as a parent is one of the most powerful things you can do
   •    The brain science behind naming a feeling 
   •    When to seek professional support — and why it’s discernment, not failure
