What’s up everyone, welcome to Surviving Our Teen Years! A podcast where we sit down and discuss the tactics and strategies we can use to go through our teen years successfully and have the best few years of our lives. We talk about everything from friendships to homework, join me each week as I release an episode on a different topic. Note: The first ten episodes were made under the previous title which was "Unqualified Teen", the content is pretty much the same, but in the intros I would have introduced and started the podcast with “welcome to unqualified teen”.

Weather it'd be for school work, your behaviour or when it comes to doing all your chores or being more responsible. The constant nagging from parents can get quite annoying!
