Episode 5: “My mother-in-law buys my son too much junk!”

An anonymous follower and her husband are trying to teach their
son to live simply by providing him with toys made of wood or
fabric. However, Anonymous’ mother-in-law refuses to cooperate with
the couple’s wishes. Instead, she continues to buy her grandson
hundreds of dollars of noisy, plastic toys. She called her son and
daughter-in-law “boring” and said that she wanted to be “the fun
grammy.” 

From the angles of a spiritual director, trauma recovery coach, and
life coach, Deanna, Erin, and Marge delve into what it means to
honor our father and mother as it says in the Fourth Commandment.
They give Anonymous advice on how to respond with integrity and
honesty while standing up and saying “no” to the gifts.
