'My Teen Has No Friends And I Don't Know How To Help‪'‬ Help! I Have A Teenager

    • Kids & Family

If your teen has ever struggled to make (or keep) friends, you'll know how distressing this can be. Ginni and Jo have some sage advice for a parent who is concerned their son's behaviour has ostracised him amongst his peers. 

Plus, they discuss a dilemma from a listener who wants to know if a local club is an appropriate first job for their daughter.
