LEARN MOREAre the parents in your community overwhelmed, disconnected, or discouraged?
Youâre not alone. Across the country, schools and nonprofits are seeing these signs:
- Parents struggling to discipline effectively without anger or fear
- Minimal parental engagement in schools or programs
- High-risk youth behavior linked to inconsistent family guidance
- Breakdowns in communication between parents and children
- Parents feeling powerless to shape their childâs values or choices

These are symptoms of a deeper problem:Â
Many parents were never taught how to address these issues and begin to feel inadequate:
âIâm doing the best I can, but it doesnât feel like enough.â
âTheyâre glued to their phone and donât talk to me.â
âIâm scared Iâm losing them.â
âHow do I keep my child safe and still give them freedom?â
âParenting is so different than when I was growing up⌠am I doing it wrong?â
Some parents are seeking answers to:
âHow do I set boundaries with my child without pushing them away?â
âHow can I get my child to open up and talk to me?â
âWhat do I do when my child is disrespectful?â
âHow can I protect them from social media without being the âmean parentâ?â
âWhatâs the right balance of discipline and freedom?â
Thatâs where Parents on a Mission steps in.
