Raising Teens, Marriage Tune-up, Making a Documentary



E128 – Raising teenagers is tough as they enter new phases and get into new predicaments. Driving, learning independence, sneaking around, getting caught! Hear a list of tips for parenting teens as Mouse shares the latest and wants advice. How do you parents feel when your kid starts driving? What do parents do when it comes to catching their kid up to no good and what is the right punishment? How much is too much? We discuss guilt and shame, and how birthday chocolate and junior college play into this! We also discuss the latest marriage tune-up that counselor Weens helped her big sister with. See if your recurring fights or miscommunications are the same as Joelle’s, and hear what Julianne did as the mediator. We also get into what we’re up to, how living together is going, and what it was like on the first leg of filming our documentary! Oooh, mysterious! ****Be sure to hear the birthday song at the end, orchestrated as a gift from Julianne to Joelle! It’s happy tears time!!!****
