Parent Tips
It’s OK to Catch Your Teen Doing Something Right
By Jim Fay
"It may come as a surprise for some parents to learn that most teens are suffering from a strong case of self-doubt. In fact, a person’s self-concept is usually lower during the teen years than at any other time in life.
Self-doubt in teen is normal. It usually stems from the enormous social, emotional, physical and hormonal upheaval they are experiencing. Over a period of time, parents can help turn these feelings of self- doubt into healthy feeling of self-worth."
