OF ‘THE PARENT TEST’ ON ABC parenting style. But reflection is not enough. If they’re doing something that’s encouraging their child to grow up to be a healthy and happy young person and adult, then of course, continue doing it. But if they’re doing something that’s not quite on track for that, then the next part of that self-reflection is self-correction. So those are the most, in my opinion, humbling things that any parent can be a part of – self-reflection and selfcorrection.

You know, I would hope they would come away with an understanding that the two most humbling things that any parent can ever do involves self-reflection and self-correction. So if they watch the show, I would want them to reflect on their own
Oh, of course. There were parents there that – my only comment to them during a break was, I’d look at them and say, “Goals.” (Laughs) I mean, there’s a traditional parenting style that’s on this show that I fell in love with because my grandparents were very integral in rearing me. And then there was a family that reared their children in rural America as farmers. I identified with them because my grandparents were farmers. So I was constantly reflecting, constantly. And of course, my children are all young adults but now I have two grandchildren, so it’s kind of like a second chance.
