Do you want to know the biggest mistake parents of teens make? It might surprise you! Many parents think it's things like yelling at their teen, trying to control them, or being too friendly. But the biggest mistake is actually trying to change their teen instead of focusing on being the kind of parent they want to be.In this podcast, we talk about how to be the parent of your dreams. First, you need to know what kind of parent you want to be. Then, you should do a daily check-in to see how you're doing. You can also practice being the parent you want to be using something called the "Wheel of Life." And remember, focus on what you can control, which is yourself, not your teen.If you're tired of always yelling at your teen, figure out what kind of parent you want to be instead. Then start working on being that kind of parent. It won't be easy and it won't happen overnight, but with practice and awareness, you can be the parent of your dreams!See the full show notes at: https://benpughcoaching.com/233Want a Simple Step by Step Parenting Debrief Guide?

Are you bracing yourself for the teen years? Buckle up, because John Morales and Sarah Tafoya sat down with Danielle Bean on Morning Air to talk about the ups and downs of raising teens. Danielle, mom of eight kids (yes, eight!), dropped some serious wisdom on surviving these years without losing your mind—or your faith.   Here's the scoop:   Teens = Big Attitudes Danielle doesn't sugarcoat it; teens definitely develop an attitude (or two!). But instead of seeing it as terrifying, she reframes it: it's a sign of growth! Teens are figuring out who they are, which is awkward for everyone. As parents, it's our job to support them as they grow.   How to Break Through the Silence We all know the "How was school?" conversation that ends with a one-word answer: "Fine."  Danielle recommends getting creative with your questions.   Try:   "What was the best part of your day?" "Who's your closest friend and why?" When all else fails, do something active with them: playing sports, cooking, or even a project can get the conversation flowing when sitting face-to-face feels too intense. Pray, Pray, and Pray Some More Feeling like you're losing control? That's where prayer comes in. Danielle urges parents to be “prayer warriors” for their teens. You can't control everything they face, but you can entrust them to God and their guardian angels. Seriously, praying for your teen's angel is a game-changer, especially when you can't be there in person.   Balance Freedom and Rules Yes, teens need space. Yes, they need boundaries. It's a dance, like when John shared how he and his son hit the batting cages together, mixing fun with father-son bonding. Or when it comes to screens and phones, Danielle says delay it as long as possible. Teens might push back, but that's okay! "If your teen is happy with all your rules, you might be doing something wrong," she jokes (but also… she's kinda serious!).   Final words of wisdom: Don't freak out! God handpicked you to be the parent of your teen. Lean into His grace, keep praying, and remember: you're shaping them into the person God wants them to be. You've got this!

9/26/24 6am CT Hour - Monsignor James Shea/ Danielle Bean   John, Glen and Sarah chat about Hurricane Helene, the White Sox 1 game away from having the worst record in baseball history and play What's That Sound.   Monsignor talks venial sins and why it's important to not let them slip under the radar so they don't clog up the pipes.   Danielle gives tips on how to navigate parenting teens in today's world.

I am very concerned about the well-being of teens and tweens today. Frustrated parents, we need big time help. I mean Captain Obvious right? Per the CDC, suicide and homicide rates (10-24) are the highest they have been in decades (since 1968). A shocking 42% of adolescents are experiencing sadness and hopelessness (up 50% from 2011)--57% of females. 22% of all students have considered attempting suicide (up 36% from 2011). It is a mental health crisis for one of our most vulnerable demographics, adolescents. Anxiety is up. Loneliness is up [i]. Gender dysphoria, confusion up. Religion and church attendance is down.[ii] Today, I want to give you a simplified class on attachment theory related to teens. I think that you will find things that just might help. How can already good enough parents of teens and tweens become just a little bit more good enough parents? Everything I say will have a firm biblical foundation while informed by attachment theory and neuroscience. We will look at the important notion of attunement in relationships, particularly with your teen and tween. We will go deeper into the two main attachment theory categories of children's insecure behavior—don't worry about getting lost in the weeds. I've got you.  I will give you some helpful tips to help them become a little more secure. I will also say a little about social media and its dangers.  Support The Show: https://www.gospelrant.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Attention Parents of Teenagers! This is part 2 of a 3 part series on parenting teens. If you missed week 1, listen to it here. According to the CDC, mental health problems in youth often go hand-in-hand with other health and behavioral risks like increased risk of drug use, experiencing violence, and higher risk sexual behaviors.In part 2 of our 3 part series on raising teens, licensed therapist Mary Weber is back to discuss what issues are most common with the young patients she sees (from anxiety to busy schedules), how to teach our teens resiliency instead of rescuing them, and ways we can come alongside our teens as parents, mentors, teachers and youth leaders.As always, Mary approaches these topics with kindness, empathy, grace and truth while sharing practical tips you can implement immediately. Plus, she gives a pep talk to parents who may want (and need) to have a difficult conversation with their kids!Mary Weber has been a licensed therapist for 36 years and is based out of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. She has been well trained and educated, has a mountain of experience, & a deep love for the Lord.If you are the parent of a teenager, a youth leader in your church or if there are teens in your life who you love, don't miss part 2 of this 3 part series.Thanks to our amazing partners on this episode: International Justice Mission & Vern EideInternational Justice Mission is a global nonprofit working to end slavery and violence around the world, taking special care of survivors from the moment they're rescued all the way through their healing and restoration.

Rachel Marie Martin believes in the power of the human spirit to overcome, to thrive and to find deep joy and because of that she pours out her heart via these platforms: she is the writer behind the site FindingJoy.net and author of both Mom Enough and The Brave Art of Motherhood and a founding partner in Audience Industries – a company designed to train and equip entrepreneurs in their ventures. Her articles have been translated into over 25 languages, her site reaches millions of visitors per month and she has a robust, engaged Facebook community.

She speaks worldwide encouraging moms and entrepreneurs to live each day with purpose and drive. Beyond that, she's a mom to seven, and calls Nashville, Tennessee, her home. Key Takeaways “What's the worst that can happen and can I get through that?” Worry is part of being a parent. Don't beat yourself up if you worry. It's an acknowledgement of your love. As a parent, be sure to settle into the knowingness that you are doing the best you can with the resources that you have. Using a “target with a positive expectation” is a good way to set a goal to give your teens the opportunity to succeed. Choose your words carefully when setting an expectation and use positive language. Give it some pause and grace when you talk with your teens. Setting boundaries can differ with each child/teen. Pay attention to their needs and honor who they are. Allow your teen to explore what they enjoy and consider their passion as a future career. It's important to have a respectful relationship with your teen and to address any comments towards you as a parent. Do not take it personally and have a thoughtful conversation with them about your relationship and the boundary of respect.

more than turkey.  More than Black Friday.  More than decorating for the Christmas Season.  And . . . no gifts required.  Certainly, it's a way of connecting.  But allow me to share in this podcast what I am thankful for.  (I also did a video version of this so head to https://www.jellygeneration.com/blog/124 if you want to watch it in video form.)

It's more than turkey and dressing.  It's an opportunity to reach out to those that need to hear that simple phrase - thank you.  But how and who?  Here are 10 ways to connect this season both personally and professionally.  Tip:  these 10 ideas can work for any season.  

We all have it.  Its that individual brand.  Our challenge?  Defining the gap, which is the difference between what people think vs. what we would like to have our brand defined as.  This podcast can help you narrow that gap.  

Considering pausing your career?  1/3 of those in the workforce are.  Re-entering it can be tough.  But laying the groundwork  to stay relevant can smooth the way.  

Learn the "what" and the "why" of the simplest, yet most overlooked way to meet and connect with others, whether for business or personal relationships.  

Clearly so many changes have happened since 2019-2020.  How might they affect you and how can you adjust?  This podcast covers changes and 3 ways to jump start your connecting skills again.  

Elise Knox is a life and wellness coach and a former middle school teacher. With two children of her own, Elise is helping parents and preteen/teen girls get through this challenging time with more connection and ease. Parents might feel like they never have any time to themselves and that they're pretty much living in survival mode to keep their teens healthy and well. However, this leads to burn out and not showing up as the best parent you can be. In this episode, Elise shares how to make time for yourself and take care of your needs while going through the different stages of parenthood.    Key Takeaways Parents often feel like they have no time to themselves.  What are some of the ways you can get reconnected with yourself?  After 5 years of being jolted awake to serve her kids, Elise realized she needed to take control.  What is Elise's morning practice?  How do you become more responsive to your team as opposed to reactive?  Ed noticed himself reacting in the moment instead of taking a breathe and processing his teenager's request. You don't always need to give your answer right then and there.   How much should you share with your teen?  What do you need? Turns out this question is a very challenging one to answer! What do you do if you express your needs, and your partner gets upset?  Under each uncomfortable feeling there's an unmet need.  Remember, it's a different world that your teens are growing up in today.  What do you do if your teen only wants to connect digitally?  Sponsored by Lessons in Leadership online program: Edgerety.com   Resources Eliseknox.com  Eliseknox.com/communication   Quotes:   “Life is very busy at all stages of parenthood.”    “Sometimes as parents we think we need to have the answer and give the solution right then and there, but we don't.”    “Repair is stronger than rupture. When we show our teens that we're human and we make mistakes, then they know that they can be human and make mistakes.”

The very next person you meet will have an impact on you in one way or another.  Either they are a ship in the night, or you with them connect in some way.  Yes, both make an impact.  But we all want connection on some level.  Here's what your #1 goal in meeting someone should be.

Kayla Douthitt, anti-diet advocate,  is passionate about offering parents of teens with eating disorders more support and education. On the podcast, she shares the signs for parents to look for if they are concerned that their child may have an eating disorder, like excessive exercise, weighing themselves regularly, trying to monitor food intake and comparing themselves to their peers.  Kayla also shares how parents may also be struggling in their relationship with food and their body image, how important mindset is to overcome perfectionism, and advice on what to do with cell phones and social media.  You can connect with Kayla here.  Also @WisdomNWellness on Facebook and @wisdomnwellnessky on Instagram

A Parents Guide to TikTok slang -- Jazz trade reactions 

Raising teen girls can have its challenges, but if you know these secrets, you'll not only survive but be able to have a healthy relationship with your daughter. The secrets to raising teen girls are centered around communication. About Colleen O'Grady Colleen is a licensed therapist, coach, and trainer who helps moms reduce drama, reclaim their lives, and dial up the dream with their teen(s) and young adult(s). She has a thriving private practice in Houston, TX, and coaches oms from around the world. After 50,000 hours of working with parents and teens and being a mom in the trenches with her own teenage daughter, she published her award-winning and best-selling book Dial Down the Drama: Reducing Conflict and Reconnecting with Your Teenage Daughter---A Guide for Mothers Everywhere. Her sequel, Dial-Up the Dream: Make Your Daughters Journey to Adulthood the Best for Both of You is also available wherever books are sold. Colleen has shared her message of practical hope with moms worldwide in Parents Magazine, Wall Street Journal Lunch Break, popular parenting podcasts, and on the red carpet at TEDx Wilmington. She is also the host of the Power Your Parenting: Moms with Teens podcast. Colleen started her journey as a youth minister. She was immersed in the world of teens. The teens thought she was a rockstar. She saw the great side of teens through this journey. Once she became a psychotherapist, she began seeing the worst of teens, and the hard stories of teenagers, and she had her own daughter. As she navigated her relationship with her daughter, she started studying neuroscience around our stress response. The human brain is not fully developed until the age of 25. Kids will mature at different rates, but no matter the rate of maturity, they are not able to make great decisions all the time. People often spend a lot of time in the fight, flight, or freeze mode because we don't know how to handle situations, both kids and adults. Staying calm amidst the drama Timing is everything. If your daughter is stressed, hungry, intoxicated, angry, or emotionally flooded, it is not the right time to have a conversation. Likewise, if you are in any of these states, it is not a good idea to have a conversation with your teen daughter. Give space instead of addressing things immediately. The contain the situation and talk later rule for raising teen girls Daughters are hard-wired for drama and are hard-wired to make mistakes. It is not personal when she acts out. It is a normal part of development. Therefore, it is important not to feel like a failure. Giving yourself time to calm yourself down is helpful for having a healthy relationship. Like with everything in life, it is important not to compare your daughter with other girls. Let them be who they are and discover themselves. Likewise, choose the battles versus focusing on the things that don't really matter. Perfectionism and raising teen girls As moms, we feel the need to be the perfect mom, and that our daughters need to be the perfect daughter. If we are feeling this way, we are going to make our daughters feel that we don't care about them, we only care about perfection. Drama kills the relationship. Therefore, it is important to dial down the drama to build a connection. Don't let the drama control the connection with your daughter. Be intentional about connection by dialing down the drama. If there is drama all the time, you will miss out on great moments with your daughter. Instead of being a monitor when raising teen girls, build in focused time to be present Get up, give me your phone, and go to bed, constantly being in this mode is just managing your teen. Take the monitor hat off and commit to being with your daughter for 20 minutes a day. Be the mom who she sees laugh. Be present for her at least 20 minutes a day. When she sees that you aren't always pouncing on her, she will let you in more and more of her life. Robyn emphasized that it is important for your daughter to know that she can come to you with anything and have a conversation about anything, versus them feeling afraid of being judged by us. This demonstrates acceptance of imperfection. When raising teen girls, the best way to discipline your teen is... Colleen suggested that the best way to discipline is in a way that will help your teen grow. If your teen was drinking at a party, ask what skills she needs in these situations. Did she succumb to peer pressure? Is there something else going on? Teach them skills to handle situations versus punishing them out of anger. Powerless and powerful messaging when raising teen girls We can empower our daughters, or we can take the power away depending on how we treat our daughters. An example, it feels selfish to take care of us or to put ourselves last. If we don't take care of ourselves, we are the worse version of mom for our daughters, and this will push them away. It is critical to be self-aware of your own emotions. When raising teen girls, it is important to note that a powerless message in their junior and senior years of high school is to focus more on their end goal for their future than to communicate and be in a relationship with them. There is such an emphasis on future focus and all we can see is the best college, applications, etc. It feels like as moms we must push them over the finish line, and then they'll say thank you. But if for two years we have the future focus, we miss out on the relationship and their well-being. It is best to have a holistic view of success. If your child gets into the ivy league schools but hates their life, that is not success. Make room for connection and pay attention to your daughter's well-being. Don't lose sight of well-being. Don't miss these years. Our children have a sense of pressure, and we don't need to add to that, especially if they already have anxiety. The six keys to healing conversations when raising teen girls Your daughter is not going to come to you and ask for a healing conversation. But, out of the blue, when they are in college, they will come to you and tell you everything that's wrong with you. It is easy to get upset, hurt, and angry. Mother's always get blamed. But when your daughter attacks you, it is really about her, her being stuck in her own life. Clear motive Having a clear motive is important so that you can pause and focus on why your daughter is hurting. Slow it down The second key is slow it down. Your teen will create a story about you and any situation. Slowing it down is saying “hold up, let's go back to “one thing” because there is a lot that you are saying, but let's go back to that one thing and fix that first. Be curious Listening with curiosity is the next step. This means putting judgment aside. Our defensive reaction is” you are so immature”, or “you are so entitled”. Instead, say “so tell me what happened that made you think that I don't care about you, I would love to know about that”. Your curiosity will soften her anger. Then you can have a conversation. Take time This may seem counterintuitive. But instead of having multiple conversations going in one text, have one-topic conversations. And a lot of them. This will prove less overwhelming and result in less anger and overwhelming for both of you. Own our part This applies to high school and middle school. The first place we go to as a mother is to say that is so wrong or so rude. But often times this results in the teen getting more defensive and angrier. Maybe you know that your daughter is 99% wrong, but if you own your part, even if only 1%, it will make it easier for you and a big difference for her. If she says that you are so stressed, or afraid recognize how you are feeling. Respond with “you know when you said I was stressed, I am sorry that I was so intense. You may trigger your daughter to apologize and say she was hard on you too. When we own our own part, our daughters may soften and own their part as well. This may feel like defeat, but it is about healing. A heartfelt apology We can give a really lousy apology like okay, I'm sorry but... A heartfelt apology is when you pray, meditate, and give yourself time to understand it. It takes empathy to see it from her perspective and context. And express this to her and tell her what you are going to do to be more mindful going forward. Don't miss the moments when raising teens When your teen wants to talk or share something, don't let the moments go by without engaging with her. When you stop and listen, you will create amazing memories.

The parent company of Facebook and Instagram has added new features on their Instagram platform to help parents and their teenagers on the app. Mums and dads can now set time limits, monitor follower lists and notifications on inappropriate behaviour on Instagram. Safe on Social, an organisation dedicated to educating schools and students about cyberbullying and online exploitation, said the new strategy was a positive step but time was needed before assessing its effectiveness. Founder and CEO Kirra Pendergast said to implement the parental controls, a joint agreement was required between parents and their kids. "Personally, having spoken to 800,000 teens over the last 10 years or so, I find that concept kind of, um, delusional, to be honest," she told Liam Bartlett on 6PR Mornings. "I think there will be a quick workaround by teens, like the four other accounts that they'll be using that mum and dad don't know about." Pendergast said mums and dads don't really know what happens on their kids' social media accounts. "A lot of parents think they know a lot because they use the apps themselves, but they're not the target audience here," she said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I am not a parenting expert. But I can clearly see how teens who have been raised the way I support in this episode are far more willing and capable of overcoming challenges when they face them. Although this episode is to the parents and adults in the room, I hope some middle and high school students choose to listen in as well, so they can encourage the adults in their lives to give them room to figure things out. Registration for the Ivy League Challenge: https://ivy-league-prep-academy.mykajabi.com/the-ivy-league-challengeIG: @theivyleaguechallenge

Welcome to the December IME Parent Coaching Coffee Talk where I coach parents on all the happenings in IME Community. This is jam-packed with helpful goodness. I just know, since I’m a mom of three amazing humans, that we have good intentions as parents. The problem is, even though we have good intentions, it doesn’t always translate to showing up as a loving and supportive parent. So, what gets in the way? Why do we show up as emotionally reactive instead of with compassion for our teen? First, hand over heart and with lots of grace and compassion for ourselves as parents, we live in a society and culture that puts a lot of pressure on us as parents. TBH (to be honest, in case you’re not as cool as I am), we go about parenting with a lot of fear and lack. It’s really unfun or what I call a “nufnu” (unfun backwards). From a place of fear and lack, we get into our teen’s lane and try to fix and solve. It’s called over-functioning and I’m the absolute Queen of it. Ugh! It’s seriously embarrassing. I know what you’re thinking, “If I don’t get in my teen’s lane and stay on top of it, he/she/they will do nothing, and will stay on their screen all day.” Believe me, I get it. I’m not talking about having standards and expectations for your teen and supporting with boundaries and consequences. It’s just when we are trying to catch our teen and come from a judging and shaming place, we just continue the pattern that builds more friction, we feel crappy, and our teens never get the opportunity to create self-trust which is what allows them to create their big magic life. I’m seeing a trend in our teens, the ones I coach, on social media and my own, and that is that the same fear and lack is spilling over into their lives. Can you start to recognize when you are coming from a place of fear and lack and have an urge to fix and solve your teen? Next, create a pause and then, what if you show up with self-love superpower for yourself as a parent? Put your self-love superpower oxygen mask on first. Your teen doesn’t need you to put their oxygen mask on for them, like when they were little. Believe me, they need you to show them by putting it on yourself first. Then, your teen will start to show up with self-love superpower and create the results of their dreams!

Little did Pascale Dube know that a destructive experience from childhood would lead her to become a masterful resource in parent-teen communication. Unwavering parents. Her sister’s brain tumor diagnosis. A narcissistic boss. This triple threat of hardships, and a culmination of learned lessons, compelled Communications Specialist Pascale Dube to shift her career path. Instead of hosting corporate training programs and executive “therapy,” she now coaches communication skills to parents with teenagers. Parent Lead Coaching helps parents invest in the depth of communication. By targeting one of the hardest jobs in the world and an untapped niche market, Pascale coaches parents to become the leaders their teenagers desperately need. Parenting is a never-ending job. It’s full of opportunity and learning experiences, regardless of whether your kids are transitioning into teenhood or married with babies. In this episode of Lisa Buyer’s Digital Detox Secrets podcast, parents will learn Pascale Dube’s 5 Pillars of Good Communication, the most important currency between you and your teen, and the best ways to protect them from social media’s toxic traits. Parent Coach: Thriving in the Face of Conflict is Pascale Dube’s Speciality At just ten years old, Pascale landed her very first client as a Communications Specialist: her family of five. She initially acted as a buffer for her parents, who always struggled to find common ground. Her services later excelled when her older sister, who was only 16 at the time, was diagnosed with brain cancer. Unlike her 14-year-old sister, who suffered amid chaos, Pascale thrived when faced with conflict. And once she realized her passion for smoothing things over, she officially assumed the role of a family mediator. After spending more than two decades dissecting and improving how business people communicate and understand each other, Pascale ditched the corporate approach and developed a more personal method to coaching and leadership: serving families. All Bonds are Built on Trust “Trust is the Most Important Currency Between You and Your Teenager.” -Pascale Dube Trust is at the core of every relationship. It’s valued between intimate partners, in businesses, and within families. And when trust is broken, it’s a million times harder to rebuild that foundation than it was to establish it in the first place. Teenagers tend to rebel, slink around the truth, and sneak around, so the trust between you and your child likely is, to some degree, under fire. As a parent, putting faith in the choices your kid makes is brutal. But it’s important to remember that your children tend to mirror your behavior and actions. Seeing how you handle conflict and your emotions as well as whether you take responsibility for your mistakes will help them to understand how to properly navigate life and communicate with others. So how do you make trust a priority in effectively communicating with your teen? Pascale’s 5 Pillars of Good Communication show you how to establish, maintain, and rebuild the bond between you and your child! The 5 Pillars of Good Communication Pascale says that human interaction is not rocket science, but the reason so many people have trouble communicating is they focus too much on themselves and not enough on others. No more struggling to understand your teenager. It’s time to approach your issues head-on with these 5 pillars: Control Your Controllables: Managing your emotional state will allow you to be present

We learn from the co-founders the history of this platform, where it began, and how it grew from 2007 until today. Parenting then (pre-social media) was too “judgy and preachy”; Your Teen didn’t want to be that to its followers. Instead, the founders sought to offer real, honest support, showing the rough spots and addressing the truth in their mission with articles by a team of real parents and parenting experts. The women discuss the complexities of raising middle school girls in particular and how they arm parents with information in advance of arriving at that delicate parenting stage, and about some dos and don’ts involved in the college process.Visit their website and subscribe to their newsletter at https://yourteenmag.com  Join our free newsletter: https://smartsocial.com/newsletter/​ Take one of our 30+ additional courses on the latest teen apps: https://learn.smartsocial.com/​ Download the Smart Social app: https://smartsocial.com/app​ Learn the top 100 popular teen apps: https://smartsocial.com/app-guide-par...​ View the top parental control software: https://smartsocial.com/parental-cont...​ Learn the top Teen Slang, Emojis & Hashtags: https://smartsocial.com/teen-slang-em...​ Get ideas for offline activities for your students: https://smartsocial.com/offline-activ...​ Subscribe to our podcast on: Apple Podcasts: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/i...​ Google Podcasts: https://play.google.com/music/listen?...​ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/SafeSmar...​ Download the Smart Social app https://smartsocial.com/smart-social-...​ Learn the top 100 popular teen apps: https://smartsocial.com/app-guide-par...​  Schools & Educators: Schedule a free phone consultation to get ideas on how to protect your students and community https://smartsocial.com/hire-us/

First, yes, it was confirmed that "unpeaceful" is a real word. In this episode, Ameé brings back to the show Dr. Laura Markham, creator of Aha! Parenting, therapist, coach, and author of "Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids." Originally the plan was to have a conversation about the challenges of parenting children during a worldwide pandemic, but then with the brutal death of George Floyd on May 25 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the whole country was thrust into the largest civil rights movement in human history.

Ava is testing her own responsibility so we will allow her to stay up later or not have a bedtime. Find out what we told her she would have to do and how that backfired on us today.

Licensed mental health counselor Sissy Goff read a variety of books before writing her own book about anxiety, "Raising Worry-Free Girls." With anxiety being the No. 1 mental health battle among all ages, Goff offers practical advice to help you learn how to talk to anyone who worries too much. This episode, with Mental Health series host Kendra Semmen, is especially helpful for parents of young children and teens suffering from anxiety.

For parents with teens, tweens or kids that will be at some point, this episode is another great one to listen to. Ameé speaks with a favorite repeat guest, Jax Anderson - a Wisconsin-based family therapist that specializes in teenagers. In this episode, Ameé and Jax talk about the neuroscience of adolescent brain development so that parents (and ever ourselves) can gain a greater understanding of the real biological and neurological changes happening in a tween and teenagers life. Our parents and their parents don't know what science knows now and that is a very long period of brain architecture and development happens between the ages of 12 until 25 years old! This is completely different than what many had thought about the way the brain forms and also gives us a better understanding of why teenagers act the way they do and what we REALLY need to do to parent them the right way through this period.

Ameé and Jax Anderson, the "Psykotherapist", tackle the confusing and frustrating realm of the teenage brain.

There is no doubt that Pam Leo has changed and affected literally thousands and thousands of lives in her decades of work teaching parents. She is a writer, speaker, educator and like me, an avid reader and learner. Since the explosion of social media, Pam has gained additional "internet fame" with her quote "Let's raise children who won't have to recover from their childhoods." Spurred on by this very quote, Amee reached out to Pam Leo to see if she would sit down and talk about how exactly to do this. Listen as the two of them discuss Pam's book, Connection Parenting and how we can all learn so much more about ourselves - even if we're not parents - by understanding more about how we were raised.
