#137: The Foundational Series Day 8 – Connection Is The Final Piece Of The Puzzle
Description
Today is the final day - Day 8 - of my series explaining the foundational principles you need to understand about parenting teens (so you can spend less time arguing and more time enjoying them!)
I’ve talked about the importance of maintaining the connection with your teen throughout this this series. And today, I’ll explain why that connection is critical to keeping your teen safe and mentally healthy. Plus, I’ll tell you how to accomplish this “connection” (especially if your teen won’t give you the time of day).
Let’s wrap up this series and give you the final piece of the puzzle – the “glue” that pulls it all together.
