The Impactful Parenting Podcast helps parents turn their chaos into connection with their children. Through meaningful stories, the podcast provides parenting tips for making family life easier! Why? Because school-aged children bring different challenges to parenting that younger kids don’t! The Impactful Parenting Podcast provides help for raising your adolescent child. So if you’re asking yourself questions like: • ”Is this normal?” • ”Why is my teenager doing this?” • ”How do I get my child to stop?” • ”I am so frustrated. What do I do?” • ”Is anyone else experiencing this? I can’t be the only one.” • ”I am worried. What can I do?” Then YOU HAVE FOUND THE RIGHT PLACE! Hi! I am Kristina Campos. I am the founder of the Impactful Parent and my passion is creating better relationships between parents and their children. I am a parenting coach, a teacher who has taught every grade level from Pre-K through high school, and most importantly, I am a mom of 4 kids! (Yep, those are my kiddos in the podcast photo). The teen years don’t need to be difficult. Teenagers CAN have a special bond with their parents! Listen and discover the tools and techniques you need to create connections, build trust, and have a stress-free household. This is only the beginning! Let’s get started, together! -Kristina Campos Founder of The Impactful Parent

Episode Summary:
Intro to 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt. Get to know Melissa, Kristina and Lane.
Tip 1 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Expect the unexpected. Make sure you are ready to be flexible because things will likely not go as planned. Do your research. Be prepared.
Tip 2 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Know your limits when choosing a child and stick with it. Don't get pressured into taking on more than you want.
Tip 3 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Resist projecting your own expectations onto your child. Find their strengths and help them develop them. They may not be interested or good at what you are good at.
Tip 4 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Respect your own needs and make sure you take care of yourself. You can't be the best parent you can be and give to a child if you aren't taking care of yourself also.
Tip 5 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Take care of your partner also. They need you and you have to stay strong together.
Kids going back to their family: A conversation about this fear and the reality of its probability. Talk about your fears.
A Family Maybe: A discussion about Lane's book and what you can find inside. Also chapter 1 is free to preview if you download the FREE Impactful Parent app and watch the episode from there.
