Communicating With Your Teen: When to Be Concerned & When to Get Help
Talking to your teen might sometimes feel like chatting with someone from a different planet. You ask simple questions and get one-word answers. Or worse, you get that all-too-familiar eye roll...
How Do I Know If My Child Is Struggling and Needs Help?
To put it mildly, parenting a teenager is not always a walk in the proverbial park. From dealing with changes in their bodies, worries about school and issues with their friends, your once usually cheerful child has morphed into a surly teen who can be argumentative, moody and challenging.
