Teen Success in Challenging Times: Practical Tips on How You Can Help Your Teen

These are challenging and disruptive times for all of us – wars, the environment, the economy – and our kids, particularly teens, are being affected as well. Everywhere they turn there is talk of how bad things are, and whether they show it or not, they are taking it in and it’s influencing the way they live their lives.

Some teens may give the appearance that they’re immune to these issues, but many of them actually have feelings of concern deep down. Other teens are more vocal, blaming adults in general and, often times, blaming their parents specifically for the world’s problems.
