Then we transitioned into our current model of full-time staff contributing their biblical perspective on topics parents are facing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year the topics were gathered from two different audiences. We surveyed you (yes, the parents reading the&nbsp;<em>Family Matters<\/em>&nbsp;articles) asking what you would like to see addressed.&nbsp; You gave us great insight, and several ideas overlap with what our staff suggested as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second method we used was surveying our college summer staff with the following questions (most frequent responses listed as well):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>While growing up, what are you thankful your parents:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Provided for you?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>love and acceptance, opportunities for extra curriculars, &amp; support in endeavors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Did with you?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Quality time (by a land slide!) \u2026 be it one on one, at bedtime, in the car, or family dinners<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Taught you?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Perseverance, hard work, faith<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What issues have you faced while in college that you WISH you would have been equipped for?\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dealing with loneliness in college (Something new that has popped up in the last two years)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Time management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finding community<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All these topics will be addressed with scripture as the banner.&nbsp; We hope to be an encouragement to you and your family with practical, biblical helps as you aim to love God and love others while raising kids to do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you for the honor!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jen and your&nbsp;<em>T Bar M<\/em>&nbsp;family<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever wonder how or why T Bar M publishes articles on the topics we do?
