“Best of” with Ken Wilgus talking about parenting teens

I hope you’re enjoying summer and hopefully getting a little extra time with your kids!

 

The next few weeks we’re going to be sharing some of the “best of” Pardon the Mess interviews. Hard to believe we’ve released over THREE HUNDRED episodes! With so many new people joining along the way, we want to be sure you didn’t miss some of our favorite interviews. 

 

Today we’re re-releasing our conversation with licensed psychologist Ken Wilgus, and he is talking with us about parenting teens. 

 

If you don’t have a teen yet, no worries, because you can never prepare too early for navigating the treacherous waters of adolescence (just kidding—kind of).

 

Dr. Wilgus shares his ideas behind “planned emancipation,” the strategy of preparing our kids for adulthood by carefully and progressively letting go of our control in key areas of their lives.

 

We talk about this in the context of giving freedom in the music they listen to, the friends they pick, and even the state in which they keep their rooms.

 

Glad you’re with us today!

 

In this with you, 

 

Cynthia Yanof | Pardon the Mess
