Dawn Oliphant is a parent of Teen boys, as well as a powerhouse, community figure. But Dawn was doubtful… “my boys will never watch the lessons.“ Fast forward and here we are with both Teen boys completing the course and Dawn seeing this as her Teen “success story”. Each of her boys went from giving short answers to questions, looking down, fidgeting, and rarely making eye contact to now carrying on conversations and engaging with others. “We are all so much happier! Wow, what a difference it’s made working with Addie & Claudia!”
What Your Teen or Tween Isn't Saying
I hear it over and over:
- My kid is so lazy – refusing to do simple tasks like pick up dirty clothes!
- Every day includes either an argument or shutting down!
- I’m worried my Teen/Tween is making bad choices, but I don’t seem to have any control!
- It feels like a losing battle, but I don’t want to give up!
My child lashes out at me – we’ve lost the connection we used to have!
And from Teens and Tweens, I hear this over and over:
- Nobody listens to me!
- I hate being treated like a little kid!
- I’m so stressed out about school – actually about everything!
- I hate the way I look
- I feel awkward – it’s so hard to make friends
Here’s why these behaviors & feelings are happening:
“When you get to the core of what’s driving those negative behaviors and attitudes, you’ll find someone who’s afraid and unsure of themself. Teens and Tweens lash out and shut down because they’re unsure of who they feel they need to be without knowing who they really are, and they’re afraid of what’s ahead.
When your Teen or Tween gets connected to their unique qualities and learns how to value and trust themselves, plus learns how to communicate effectively in spite of their emotions, their life will become fulfilling and meaningful.
With the right support and Life Skills, your Teen or Tween can feel empowered by who they are and gain the confidence needed to open up, trust themselves, feel connected and achieve their full potential.
Yes, that means your youth is now a responsive and respectful young adult who is back to feeling confident, and connected to you!”
