Parenting a teen feels like trying to read a book in a language you’ve never learned. They shut down, lash out, or avoid you altogether and it can leave you frustrated, hurt, and second-guessing everything. In this episode, we share a story about a friend of mine who thought her son had an “attitude problem” but discovered there was so much more going on beneath the surface. We break down why behavior is rarely the root problem, and understand what’s really happening in their world. Get ready to change the way you interpret your teen’s behavior and learn how to build a stronger relationship.   Highlights Why your teen’s attitude is rarely about you. How to avoid reacting in the moment and start responding with intention. What happens when you stop fixing and start listening. Why repairing after conflict matters more than preventing it. Tools to create emotional safety when your teen pulls away.   Resources + Links Watch the podcast on YouTube   Follow Us Jenn Shaw Jones - Jennerational Healing Founder of Jennerational Healing and a Teen Communication & Identity Coach for Moms.
