The cancel culture phenomenon has infiltrated family relationships, with many parents experiencing the pain of being "ghosted" by their own children. This growing issue stems from an inability to navigate forgiveness and reconciliation, leaving families fractured and relationships broken.

• Most couples in troubled relationships don't know how to forgive one another
• When children "cancel" parents, they often believe something false about themselves and their parents
• Asking "Is there something I've done that hurt you?" creates space for healing
• Proverbs 17:9 shows that "love prospers when a fault is forgiven"
• Forgiveness requires specificity—saying "forgive me for what" rather than generic apologies
• The story of Tom and his son John demonstrates how God can heal relationships before it's too late
• A father reconciled with his daughter after 17 years by asking how he had hurt her
• The prodigal son story is really about the father waiting on the porch, ready to restore the relationship
• Building a culture of forgiveness in your family safeguards future generations
• Be quick to repent to God first, then model forgiveness to your children
• Ask questions rather than preach sermons to your children
• Don't give up on estranged children—they need you in their story
