"Kids will be kids," as they say — immature, loud, defiant, and sometimes downright disrespectful. But what if their behavior — especially the frustrating kind — is actually an attempt to communicate something deeper?

Rather than reacting with frustration or demanding a level of maturity from our kids that we haven’t yet modeled ourselves, what if we saw these moments as invitations for our own continued growth?
