Description

Being a teenager has changed. A lot. There’s TikTok, vaping, d*ck pics, there are Snap maps, selfies and filters...and it's all a potential battlefield for parents where the stakes feel impossibly high. So welcome to some real parenting talk. As both clinicians and parents, Dr. Ginni Mansberg and clinical psychologist Jo Lamble know first-hand how challenging it can be to raise adolescents. This is why they're bringing their common-sense expertise to Mamamia’s Help! I Have A Teenager. Every week Dr. Ginni and Jo will be answering your questions, and you can submit them at podcast@mamamia.com.au

Your kids might be a bit older, and you’re back in the routine of life—work, kids, chores—but how’s your relationship? Has it started to feel more like you’re roommates than partners?  Before you know it, you might find yourselves in the "roommate phase." In this episode of This Glorious Mess, we explore the telltale signs of this phase and share tips on how to reconnect. We're also joined by a dad, who brings his own perspective on navigating the roommate dynamic in relationships. And to wrap things up, we leave you with a song that might just hit you right in the feels. You can read Bek Day's Mamamia article 'I coach married parents through the "roommate phase". Here's the 2 day experiment I swear by.' Like what you heard? You can listen to more of This Glorious Mess wherever you get your podcasts.

A heads up: This episode discusses child sexual abuse and may be better to listen to with headphones if little ears are around. As parents, we know that conversations with our kids, regardless of age, can sometimes go in one ear and out the other.

Thanks for the great podcast. You are right, in all these new trends there is a share of danger and dependence of the younger generation. More stores like https://hazesmokeshop.ca/ can cover the needs of even the most daring smokers. But in my opinion, it's everyone's business
