Why Parenting Styles Matter When Raising Teens

Turning Winds Season 1 Episode 5

In this episode of the Turning Winds Podcast, host Kevin Zundl sits down with Carl Baisden to explore a topic that resonates with every parent: parenting styles and their lasting impact on family dynamics. With years of experience supporting both teens and their families, Carl shares insights from Turning Winds’ parent workshops, where the focus is not just on teens in treatment—but on how families grow together.

They dive into the realities of mismatched parenting styles, like the all-too-common mix of authoritarian and permissive approaches and how these can unintentionally create chaos or undermine progress. Carl offers strategies to move toward a more balanced, authoritative style that fosters both accountability and connection.

If you’ve ever wondered how to parent more effectively or struggled with being on the same page with your partner, this episode offers honest guidance and encouragement to take that next step.
