We all know we need to give our teenagers a little more freedom. But how much? And how? Your teenager is growing and changing right before your eyes and it can be hard to figure out how much independence is the right amount. It can also be incredibly difficult and scary to let go of control as a parent.

This week on TEENS WHO THRIVE, I am giving you concrete examples of how to loosen your parenting reins just a little.

Join me this week to see what it looks like to grant a little more freedom and independence when it comes to:

• Academic responsibilities
• Time management
• Privacy
• Decision-Making

When we do it right and we find the balance between freedom and oversight, we not only empower our teens to become more independent, but we also do wonders when it comes to keeping our relationship with them on solid ground.
