Parenting is hard. Being a teen is hard. But parenting teens? That's a whole other level of difficulty!
In this episode of UnPerfect, I chat with Jon Acuff and his daughter McRae, the authors of How Teens Win: The Student's Guide to Accomplishing Big Goals. We explore the back story and its relevance for today’s youth. We discuss practical tools to help teens navigate challenges, set goals, and discover their potential. With golden ideas like the "best moments list," it's a conversation packed with wisdom and relatable insights for teens and those currently parenting teens.
In "Strategies for Parenting Teens," we discuss:
- the unique challenges facing today’s young people, exacerbated by the pandemic
- stereotypes about teenagers being difficult or disconnected contrasted with their potential to change the world.
- A powerful tool for teens to identify experiences that bring them joy and fulfillment, helping them uncover patterns and inform future decisions.
