NTM 412: Letting go with tweens and teens - when to trust and when to guide - PART 1
Following on from a flurry of responses on our socials, this podcast is a round-table honest mum-wisdom discussion about the realities and lessons learnt on the tween/teen journey.
In this Part 1 we discuss:
⁃How to recognise when you’re ‘in this phase’ of parenting
⁃Holding relationship as the key fundamental to successful parenting in the teenage years
⁃Knowing when to step back or lean in
⁃Teaching our kids how to be with commitment and responsibility to more than themselves and in doing so, teaching them how to trust more than their anxiety and fear
⁃Loving and connecting with your tween/teen - how it changes and bringing awareness to your connection points
⁃Enjoying your tween/teen and who they are as a whole and complex human
⁃Finding grace within the sharp barbs of these years and what creates the difference between a brutal or beautiful experience
⁃As our kids grow, letting them grow us and embracing the growth that is your life RIGHT NOW
⁃Not being ‘so perfect’ and allowing space for your kids to witness your own imperfection and messiness
We will continue this conversation next week where we’ll move into social media, boundary setting, choosing education systems, sexually active and alcohol conversations.
