It’s now more than six years since my neighbour Amy and I scratched our heads about the problem of our children’s lack of freedom to play outside and had the crazy notion to close our street to cars one Monday after school. Since then, our toddlers have become tweenagers and playing out has become an […]
It can be heartbreaking when they pull away, but take comfort in known, it's so very normal. If your teen has become standoffish, aloof or acts like they "tolerate" you far more than they "love" you, check out this post for ideas on how to connect with them. #teenagers #tweenagers #parents #parenting #momofteens #momofteenboy #momofteengirl #motherhood
I took my teens’ moods, behavior, and body language to heart… I was pretty good at letting my boys’ assortment of moods bounce off of my heart when they were little. But when they entered their teen years and our eyes met at the same level, it got a lot harder. #teenagers #tweenagers #teens #tweens #parenting #parentingtips #parentinghacks #momofteenagers #teenagerposts #parentingteens

How do we instill and nurture a “can-do” attitude in our teens? How do we encourage them to climb mountains they never thought possible, be brave even in the toughest of storms, bounce back with mental toughness, and ride the tumultuous waves of life with resilience and buoyancy? It all begins with a growth mindset… #parenting #parentingteenagers #parentingteens #tweens #teens #momtips #teenagers #tweenagers #growthmindset
Why is it that our once chatty, “hung on our every word” child suddenly becomes an expert at ignoring us the minute they hit the teen years? But before you chalk up your teen’s rather annoying, “I’m totally tuning you out,” habit to rudeness, laziness or sheer rebelliousness, there’s a small fact that should make you feel better. #teenagers #tweenagers #parenting tips #parenting parentingteens
Ask pretty much any parenting expert and they’ll tell you… DON’T be friends with your kids. They advise that parents should always stand firm and never blur the boundaries of the parent and child relationship if they want to raise their kids right and be respected. And, for the most part, I followed that advice to a “T” for the vast majority of my son’s childhood. But now, he's a teenager. #teenagers #tweenagers #parenting #parentingteenagers
I found this book particularly thought-provoking as a parent of two tweenagers. The audiobook was really well narrated and again I highly recommend another T.M. Logan novel! Andy and Laura are good parents. They tell their son, Connor, that he can go out with friends to celebrate completing his exams, but he must be home by midnight. When Connor misses his curfew, it sets off a series of events that will change the lives of five families forever....
It’s all happening a little too fast for this mom’s heart. One minute, my son was playing with Nerf Guns and cracking fart jokes with his friends, and now he wants to start dating… Even though my son is quick to tell me that I’m totally clueless about the dating world, “OMG mom, that’s not how it works!” – there’s still plenty of timeless advice I feel compelled to share with him. #teendatingtips #teenagers #tweenagers #teensanddating #momadvice #parentingteens
Though my kids will always be my babies, I wouldn’t be doing my job as a mom if I didn’t help them learn to “adult.” Sometimes, that means tossing them out into the world to figure a few things out on their own. Sometimes, it means stepping back when they ask for my help and saying, “Give this a shot yourself… I’m right here if you stumble.” Here's how to teach your teen how to adult. #teenagers #adulting #parentingteens #parentingtweens #tweenagers #lifelessonsforkids #teachingkids
