Help! I Have A Teenager

As parents, we often fret over how much time our kids spend on social media or with friends, but they have bigger worries. Ginni and Jo discuss the differences in worries between teenagers and parents, and how we can bridge that gap in understanding.

And, is your teen mumbling? We give advice on how to help teens communicate better when they want to be heard.
