96. This is How They Learn: Parenting Teens with Deanna Combs

Karmen and her bestie Deanna Combs are both mothers navigating the complexities of parenting teenagers. Today, they share their experiences, insights, and challenges. They discuss the delicate balance of letting go of control while providing support, the developmental milestones of adolescents, the impact of screen time and social media, and the importance of building a supportive community among parents. Karmen and Deanna emphasize the need for understanding and empathy as they guide their children through this transformative stage of life. Teens learn from making mistakes in safe spaces where they have support, and lying is actually a sign of being developmentally on track!
