Here are a handful of my recommended resources: * Bethany Kimsey’s Warrior Mama Podcast: Disciplining with Grace * Don’t Make Me Count To Three by Ginger Hubbard * Jen Wilkin on Obedience * The New Strong Willed Child and Bringing Up Boys by Dr. James Dobson (If my parents or in laws used it and it was fruitful, you can bet we will too. Saddened to hear of the many voices who would like to discredit Dobson’s faithful work. Maybe it wasn’t perfect, and yes, there are some who would say it did their families a disservice or was harmful, but I wouldn’t see it that way. Take the meat, leave the bones. More on this another time.) * Habits of The Household by Justin Whitmel Earley * Raising Boys to Men by Durenda Wilson * Wild Things by Stephen Jame and David Thomas Get full access to The Open Door at thenotsoangrymom.substack.com/subscribe ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-not-so-angry-mom-7424990/episodes/ep-8-parenting-and-discipline-when-grown-kids-reject-god-why-i-won-t-address-spanking-advice-i-avoid-gospel-conversations-and-more/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-not-so-angry-mom-7424990/ep-8-parenting-and-discipline-when-grown-kids-reject-god-why-i-won-t-address-spanking-advice-i-avoid-gospel-conversations-and-more.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
