Parenting Support
“The sun was setting over our perfect suburban neighborhood as I sat at the kitchen table, staring at the untouched cup of tea. My husband sat across from me, his face etched with worry. But the empty chair between us held the most weight—the chair where our sOnshine should have been sitting.
We had packed up our lives, left behind friends and family, and relocated to a new city so he could attend college of his liking. But instead of thriving, he dropped out. No warning, no discussion. Now, he spends his days playing video games and moving about with friends, working one shift a week at a grocery store, and speaking to us with disdain.
“My nephew was 14 years old when it happened in 2011. The prosecutor offered 20 years. The judge was moved to tears when he saw our family’s support and cut his sentence in half with 5 years probation. After doing 8 years with good behavior, he was released.
But because of his record—2nd-degree murder and grand theft auto—no one would hire him. Nowhere.”
The Modern Parenting Paradox
Today’s parents face challenges unlike any generation before:
- Technology that creates constant distraction and comparison
- Peer pressure amplified by social media
- A culture that often undermines parental authority
- Children who have more options but less direction
- The impossible balance between supporting and enabling
These challenges are especially difficult when your child has:
- Fallen in with the wrong crowd
- Withdrawn from family connection
- Lost their sense of identity or purpose
- Begun showing disrespect or defiance
- Stopped responding to traditional discipline

This Isn't About Perfect Parenting. It's About Peaceful Parenting.
This is what we’ll do together:
- Rebuild the trust that’s been damaged through conflict
- Create communication channels that actually work (even with teenagers who don’t want to talk)
- Develop strategies for setting boundaries without creating walls
- Find ways to support without enabling destructive behavior
- Reclaim your identity beyond just being “mom” or “dad”
My Approach Is Different Because It's Real
The mistakes that led to your incarceration? They happened. We can't change that. But we can change what those mistakes mean for your future.
Your record doesn't have to be a life sentence to poverty, frustration, and closed doors. It can be the chapter that came before your greatest comeback story.
I know because I've seen it happen. Not just with my nephew, but with dozens of clients who came to me feeling hopeless, I left them with a concrete plan—and the confidence to execute it.
