Mastermind Parenting Podcast Outdated Parenting Just Doesn’t Work With 2024 Teens (with Coach Kevin Baker)
Teenage-hood. It’s a loaded topic. It’s a loaded time.
- Just you wait til this one’s a teenager.
- Payback’s a bitch - you were a nightmare as a teenager!
- We turned out fine but the risks are too risky for kids today.
Ya’ll have been asking me for teenager resources for forever.
The teen years have always been tough. Changing schools, changing bodies, racing hormones.
But today’s teenagers face more. The world has become more complicated.
#FACTS.
Recently, I talked to Coach Kevin Baker, and I think you’ll hear immediately why I invited him on the pod. Kevin is super committed to helping stuck in a rut or struggling teenagers.
Listen as we break down this topic and how we can help our kids rather than accidentally stressing them out more.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why the freedom to make choices - good AND bad - is so important to your teenager’s development.
- How to hold expectations for your kiddos, and how to know when it’s more important to let them go and just be supportive.
- How to stay compassionate and preserve your sanity during the transition from easy, chatty kid to sullen, surly teen.
And much more!
