Survival Tips for Parents of Teens

Girlfriends (A Podcast for Catholic Women)

Are you a parent of a new teenager? Are you afraid? Don’t be! This week, I’m sharing ideas for ways to survive and THRIVE through the teen years.

Takeaways

* Don't take your teenager's behavior personally; it is a natural stage of development.

* Pray for your teens and be a source of support and encouragement.

* Respect their space and set boundaries that are appropriate for their age and maturity.

* Ask questions and listen to your teens to show that you care about their lives.

* Don't feel overwhelmed by the concept of liturgical living; focus on what brings joy and meaning to your family.
