Afraid of all the teen drama you've heard about?

They are moody

It's hard not to take it personally when it feels like you're trying to hug a cactus.

They are selfish

You'd be rich if you had a dollar for every time you thought "It's not all about you"

They are messy

They are busy and leave wrappers on the floors & in couch cushions.

They make stupid choices

And the consequences are far scarier than anything you faced at their age

What if I told you it doesn't have to be drama filled?

Parenting teens can be fun and full of joy!
