Parenting Todays Teens with Mark Gregston

(Click title to listen)

PODCAST SCRIPT:

Are you finding it nearly impossible to get through to your teen?

It’s tough to reach your teen … when he’s got his headphones on all the time and all you get back is a grunt or a one-word answer.  But don’t allow those obstacles to deter you.  This is no time to back off!

Find a way to engage your teen with funny stories from your past.  Let them share in the humor of some of your dumb mistakes.  Make sure they’ve heard about your family history … and the reason you turned out like you have.  These unfiltered moments will produce esteem, stability and a sense of purpose.

Mom.  Dad.  Quit lecturing and tell some good ol’ stories!
