Engaging Your Teen's World: Understanding What Today's Youth Are Thinking, Doing, and Watching
Netflix and chill, broccoli, and LGBTTQQIAAP+. If you don't know what these words and phrases really mean to your teen, you are not alone. The verbal terrain of today's youth requires a guide--a culture translator to help parents of teens decipher the codes.
You will learn how to maintain open communication about everything from relationships to technology and media in order to help teens grow in their faith and successfully deal with difficult issues. David and Jeremiah bring a wealth of experience, sharing a big-picture view of a teen's world and how to interact with it, on topics such as:
- what your teen is thinking, doing, and watching
- wise boundaries with devices, video games, and social media
- conversations about sex, gender, porn, sexting, and vaping
Despite the many challenges facing teens and their parents, this book offers a hopeful view toward the long-term goals of your relationship with your teen and their relationship with the Lord.
