How To Value My Parents While Raising My Kids

Looking after our own parents, while still raising young kids, is perhaps a juggle most of us must manage at some point in life - whether it's financially, or perhaps when Ouma or Oupa moves in with us! How do we balance this intricate family dynamic, and still appreciate our parents, and our kids, with true, unconditional, love & joy?

We have kids growing up and eventually leaving the house, while our parents get older and become dependent again - what is the best approach to stay present, to be appreciative of both our parents, and our kids, and create peace & harmony?

Dr Jenny Rose, clinical psychologist & parent-child expert, joins Elana this week to help us with some guidance and good advice.
