INFO:

Have you tried to connect with your preteen and teen and get 1 or 2-word phrases back like “I’m fine”, “It’s cool” or “Good” when you ask them about their life? I know this frustrated me. I knew my kids needed a safe place to discuss life, but I wasn’t it! When I heard Holly from @wellblendedlife talk about parenting after dark, I thought this is genius!!! I want to be able to turn back time to when my kids were in that stage and put these things into action.  That season was rough for us, and I have to stop myself from focusing on the wouldau002Fcouldau002Fshoulda. But I can’t help but think if I would have taken advantage of more opportunities what difference it would have made? If you are in the the thick of it, I don’t want you to miss out on these moments! I have put these into practice with my young adult kids and have seen a difference.  So if you are looking for ways to connect with your preteens and teens, you have got to listen to episode 191.  Before you leave to go listen, be sure to follow @wellblendedlife for more parentingu002Flife hacks!
