Podcast SummaryUnlock the secrets to becoming the go-to person your teenager trusts and confides in with insights from Jeanine Mouchawar, an experienced parenting coach. We promise you’ll gain practical strategies to handle the challenging teenage years, reduce conflicts, and cultivate a calm, nurturing atmosphere where your children can thrive. Drawing from her own experiences of raising three children through the tumultuous teen years, including those with ADD and learning disabilities, Jeanine reveals how dialectical behavioral therapy can transform your relationship with your kids.
Discover how effective communication with teenagers requires a shift from structured guidance to more delicate support. We explore the necessity of slowing down and focusing on building a connection before addressing issues like falling grades or disrespect. Learn why managing your own emotions and avoiding the urge to offer immediate solutions is crucial. Instead, foster open-ended conversations that invite teenagers to share their thoughts and feelings, helping them feel understood rather than defensive.
We also look into the art of having meaningful discussions around tough topics like procrastination and missing assignments. By approaching these conversations with curiosity and understanding, you can encourage self-discovery and problem-solving in your kids. Jeanine shares how acknowledging different working styles and emotions can build flexibility and understanding in your parenting. Ultimately, create a home environment where every family member feels seen, heard, and valued, fostering lasting connections that keep your children returning home, eager to engage with their family.
