About this Episode
What if the hardest parts of parenting were actually opportunities for growth? On this inspiring episode of FamilyLife Today, Dave and Ann Wilson sit down with Abbie Halberstadt, author of Hard Is Not the Same Thing as Bad. Through candid stories - from the overwhelming joy and challenges of parenting twins with sensory issues to societal assumptions - Abby unpacks her powerful philosophy: difficulty in life isn't negative, but an opportunity for growth and sanctification.
