Getting teens to talk about what’s going on in their lives can be a difficult task. You may be met with slamming doors, one-word answers, or even silence. Instead of chalking this up to normal teen moodiness and walking away, parents and caring adults need to keep lines of communication open.
In Part Two of our series on effective communication, Rebekah Gibbons, LICSW, will take participants through four common scenarios. In each scenario, she will teach parents and caring adults how to use communication strategies that work. You will learn how to validate your teen’s feelings and discuss sensitive topics.
By improving communication skills, parents and caring adults can better connect with teenagers and support their mental health needs.
