Episode Details

What does this way of parenting look like with teens?

In this episode, I:

• Reassure you that teens want to be parented with playfulness and connection, too
• Explore what’s hard about realizing we don’t have control over anyone’s behavior- including our teens
• Remind you that the behavior you want to see from your teen are all owl brain skills, so keep using regulation, connection, and felt safety to grow their owl brain

This is a Friday Q&A episode, where I answer a listener’s question.

Underneath every behavior is something happening in the body, specifically in the nervous system. When we support the body first, behavior often begins to shift. Even for kids who don't have a sensory processing disorder!
