Parenting Today's Teens - Are You Really Listening to Your Teen?

Today, Mark Gregston and Wayne Shepherd emphasize the importance of truly listening to your teen rather than lecturing, correcting or constantly giving opinions. When teens don’t feel heard at home, they’ll seek connection elsewhere. They encourage parents to set aside intentional, judgment-free time to simply listen and ask thoughtful questions. The goal isn’t to fix or respond, but to build trust and deepen understanding by being fully present.
