Teens are Teen Experts

The bad news: there is no book or adolescent expert (including us) who knows exactly what your teen needs. The good news: there IS an expert who has that information, and they live in your home. Guess what? You are currently living with the expert on your teenager, and it’s your teen. While they may lack the insight to comprehend the entirety of their world, they do have specialized knowledge of all the individual pieces. So get together with your teen and make them an integral part of your parenting team. Empower them while gaining valuable understanding.
