When your child is spiraling, every instinct screams rescue. But Dr. Doug Weiss challenges that urge with a hard truth: if you keep throwing pillows at rock bottom, they’ll never feel the crash that leads to real change. In this gripping conversation with Pastor Keith Battle, Dr. Weiss lays out a new kind of parenting—one built on biblical boundaries, not guilt-based enabling.

He unpacks why God Himself didn’t rescue Adam and Eve from consequence and how that same pattern of love-with-boundaries applies to prodigal parenting today. From group accountability in church communities to the heartbreaking trauma parents carry when watching a child self-destruct, this episode covers what tough love really looks like—and why it may be the most spiritual thing you ever do.

This video is for every mom, dad, or guardian who's worn out, prayed out, and guilt-ridden. You'll learn how to spot manipulation when to say no without shame, and why stepping aside may be the most loving thing you can do. And if your child does return, you'll know how to recognize real repentance—not just blame-shifting or emotional games. There is hope. There is healing. And there’s a path forward—starting with your freedom.
