About this episode

Dr. Kathy and Wayne discuss how parents can help children develop an identity rooted in faith rather than their struggles.

What happens when your child develops a tic or another behavior they can't control? For many parents, the first response is fear. But what if constantly focusing on the struggle actually makes it harder for the child? In this episode of Facing the Dark , Wayne and Dr. Kathy discuss how parents can help children develop an identity rooted in who God says they are rather than in a diagnosis or a physical challenge. Together, they explore the importance of seeing the whole child and helping children discover purpose and hope even in the middle of things they cannot control.
