06-19-2014: Parenting the “Challenging” Child
Dealing with Mental Health and Other Parenting Challenges

Our guests on the show are Debra Watson Islam of Gabriel’s Horn Foundation and Trent DeFrates – two parents who have come to understand this subject first hand.
You are welcome to join the conversation on June 19, 2014, at 7pm CST – live online or dial in at 347-237-4648 (press 1 if you’d like to speak with the host or guest).
