When your child always has to be right

In this episode, Emily unpacks the deeper heart issue behind kids (and adults) who always have to be right. It’s not defiance — it’s identity. When a child fights correction, shuts down, or argues endlessly, it often reveals a fear that being wrong makes them unlovable. Emily shares how parents can respond with the heart of the Father, teaching kids they are loved whether they’re right or wrong, and helping them grow into teachable, connected, and confident children rooted in God’s unconditional love.
