Part 1 Interview with my Son on What Teens Wish Their Parents Knew About Them: from social media to attitudes and procrastination we’re spilling the details.
On today's episode, I interviewed my son Will, an 18 year senior, graduating HS and heading to college.
He played HS Tennis, is a life guard, an avid basketball player, a great friend collector, child #2 of 4 and he’s agreed to give us a few insights to help build stronger relationships with our teens.
Topic: We're talking about moods, attitudes, advice, procrastination, sarcasm, how to create better relationships with our kids, connection, community, and more.
We had so much to say, Part 1 turned into Part 2.
I also interviewed over 30 moms, by zoom, in person, phones calls, and text and the #1 fear that kept them up at night.
Listen mom, no matter the age of your kids, it's never too late to build relationships. When our kids our little, life is all about wiping little butts and teaching them all the things. Frankly, it's pure labor.
As they grow older, we begin teaching responsibilities for different ages and stages. And as they become teens and young adults, it's where the fruits of our labor pays off. It's where our leading from behind, turns into friendships.
On this podcast, we’re all about creating strong relationships with our kids, making memories and building a legacy.
Will, thanks for representing teenagers and giving moms the inside scoop, to better understand where teens are coming from.
