Episode 21 - What is the next step this summer

Parents, school is out! What’s next for your pre-teen to young adult? As you transition into the summer months, consider focusing on their personal development. Are you looking to enhance their mindset, boost their confidence, or address any labels they’ve acquired along the way? Creating a game plan to close the gaps in your pre-teen or young adult’s behavior can be incredibly beneficial.

Many parents invest substantial amounts of money in sports and acting classes, yet often overlook personal development and confidence-building activities. It’s essential to balance extracurricular achievements with nurturing your child’s emotional and mental well-being. Sometimes, the focus is more on status and the prestige of their school, rather than on how your child is coping with situations at home, school, or work.

Consider who is influencing your child: is it the drug dealer, peer pressure, or social media? Take a proactive approach by investing in their personal growth, helping them develop resilience, and equipping them with the tools to navigate life’s challenges confidently. This summer, make their development a priority and create a supportive environment that fosters both their talents and their overall well-being.  My website www.drjohnoda.com
