In part two of our series on parenting teens and young adults, today we once again join with therapist and author Kristen Hatton to discuss the realities of raising this generation.

Using a hot seat format, we hit some of the most challenging topics. From vaping to bullying to eating disorders to sex, we’re “going there” in this episode.

We know there are so many incredible aspects of raising teens, but this episode is specifically for those who are facing some of the difficulties that can arise with this age group.

If you want a refreshingly honest, faith-informed perspective on teen parenting, this conversation is for you.

QUESTIONS TO HELP YOU RISE

Take some time to journal or talk through these.

• Be a student of your teen or young adult – what do you notice?
• Are you under or over parenting? What evidence is there of this?
• How can you love your child’s friends well?
• What can you do to address the heart of your child (rather than focusing on behavior modification)?
• Who could help you navigate this season with your teen / young adult?
• What activity can you do with your teen / young adult to connect right now?
