Episode Description
Many teenagers are convinced that their parents have a running list of all the ways they can embarrass them in front of their friends, trick them into doing more chores or make their curfew earlier. One problem that teens have consistently complained about is parenting books are written by adults and not teens themselves. So I decided to write two books released last month June 2013 to give both the parents and teenagers a forum to bridge the gap between them. Today I will share with you what the Teens wish parents knew from my book 471/2 Things To say to Your Teen and How to say them and then Next time I will share with you what the parents wish their teens knew from my book 471/2 Things Teens Need to Know About Getting Along with Their Parents.
