Kids have been getting a lot of attention for troubling behavior recently…committing mass shootings, posting disturbing viral videos and lashing out at their parents with shocking rage. What is going on!?!

During his many years working with troubled youth, renowned author and counselor Kim John Payne has come to a rather shocking conclusion. Maybe there’s no such thing as a disobedient child. Perhaps, we just don’t understand what’s really going on. Don’t mistake Kim’s feelings about “disobedience” for opposition to discipline. He says we need more of it!

In this episode, Jayson and Kim discuss ways to bring a balance of power back to the household and with any luck maybe a little peace as well!
