    Introducing Creating Space and Building Connection with our Teens from Raising Families with Dr. Jerry Weichman. Follow the show: Raising Families with Dr. Jerry Weichman Communicating with our kids is one of the most important, and challenging, things we do as parents. It’s so important to understand where our kids are coming from developmentally as adolescents so we can better connect with each other. When our children are in their teen and tween years, they naturally start to pull away. Creating quality time, reinforcing positive behavior, and employing effective communication techniques can help us keep up that connection with our kids. Listen on for methods to manage communication with your kids and create a lasting bond.     Don’t forget to subscribe to the show as our discussion on the subject has only just begun. Later this week we will be joined by Paul Cloud and of course our wonderful co-host Christina to continue the discussion.       More from Dr. Jerry Weichman   Podcast Website: raisingfamiliespodcast.com   Website: drjerryweichman.com   Instagram: @drjerryweichman   YouTube: @RaisingFamilieswithDrJW   TikTok: @drjerryweichman  LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jerry-weichman-ph-d   Facebook: facebook.com/drjerryweichman    Clinic: theweichmanclinic.com      This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast   IG: @reddrockmusic   www.reddrockmusic.com      The content in this video is intended for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only.
