Parenting teenagers untangled. 🏆 The audio hug for parents of teens and tweens. 58: Teen dating. Talking about relationships or 'help, my son's come home with a hickey!'
What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?
Stacy messaged to tell us that her son had come home with a hickey for a second time, and she wasn't sure whether her reaction was the right one. My goodness, parenting can be hard.
Remember when you had your very first date? The butterflies, the nervous laughter, and the constant fear of saying the wrong thing? Now imagine your teen going through the same rollercoaster of emotions.
In our latest podcast, we take a look at the words being used for dating, what teens are getting out of it; which is a lot of personal growth, excitement, and status.
Don't miss the top tips on how to be the best parent possible to a teen who's started dating.
