How to Tackle Behavioral Problems and Avoid Manipulation
2026/10/26
Navigating behavioral problems and setting limits with our kids is challenging, but so important. Today, Dr. Jerry talks through some of the tactics parents can use to set limits with their kids, avoid manipulation and how to keep it calmer while doing so. From grounding to putting getting our kids to do the small things around the house, there’s lots of ways to create better compliance and behavior. Through it all, Dr. Jerry reminds us that it’s not just about getting our kids to follow the rules of our families. When we set boundaries, we’re setting them up to follow boundaries and police themselves when they’re grown up and we’re not there to do it.     Don’t forget to subscribe to the show as our discussion on the subject has only just begun. Later this week we will be joined by Tyler Durman and of course our wonderful co-host Christina to continue the discussion.       More from Dr. Jerry Weichman   Podcast Website: raisingfamiliespodcast.com   Website: drjerryweichman.com   Instagram: @drjerryweichman   YouTube: @RaisingFamilieswithDrJW   TikTok: @drjerryweichman  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jerry-weichman-ph-d   Facebook: facebook.com/drjerryweichman    Clinic: theweichmanclinic.com      This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast   IG: @reddrockmusic   www.reddrockmusic.com       The content in this video is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.

Your Gut Knows More Than You Think
2026/09/14
Everybody has experienced a moment where they should have trusted their intuition. Today, Dr. Jerry Weichman walks us through the importance of listening to your intuition; especially as a parent. It can be easy to talk ourselves out of listening to our gut, but Dr. Weichman explains that your intuition is often correct. It’s also important that we teach our kids to follow their intuition as well as how to know when it’s anxiety or intuition. Whether it’s for ourselves or our children, learning when to follow your gut is so important.   Don’t forget to subscribe to the show as our discussion on the subject has only just begun. Later this week we will be joined our wonderful co-host Christina to continue the discussion.   More from Dr. Jerry Weichman   Podcast Website: raisingfamiliespodcast.com   Website: drjerryweichman.com   Instagram: @drjerryweichman   YouTube: @RaisingFamilieswithDrJW   TikTok: @drjerryweichman  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jerry-weichman-ph-d   Facebook: facebook.com/drjerryweichman    Clinic: theweichmanclinic.com  This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast   IG: @reddrockmusic   www.reddrockmusic.com    The content in this video is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.

Owning Our Mistakes and Taking Responsibility as a Family
2026/09/09
Dr. Jerry Weichman and Christina continue this week’s discussion on making mistakes and taking accountability. They share some of the ways they’re teaching their kids to be accountable as well as what they wish they saw more of in today’s society. It’s hard for both kids and adults to take responsibility for our mistakes, but it’s so important that we do. Kids learn by example, and growing up around people who know how to take responsibility will go a long way.   More from Dr. Jerry Weichman   Podcast Website: raisingfamiliespodcast.com   Website: drjerryweichman.com   Instagram: @drjerryweichman   YouTube: @RaisingFamilieswithDrJW   TikTok: @drjerryweichman  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jerry-weichman-ph-d   Facebook: facebook.com/drjerryweichman    Clinic: theweichmanclinic.com  This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast   IG: @reddrockmusic   www.reddrockmusic.com The content in this video is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.
