Communicating with your Parents

This website hopes to support parents and other adult caregivers how to most
effectively guide children and teens to thrive.

‍

Please look around, you’ll probably like the guidance offered. A lot of the guidance focuses on how adults can communicate with young people in a way that builds their natural strengths and prepares them to thrive in a changing world. It is about building relationships that are rooted in unconditional love and mutual respect. It is committed to strengthening families and building homes in which people are emotionally and physically safe.

‍
Relationships are between at least two people and communication is always a two-way
street. You have a critical role in building the kind of communicative relationships in
which families remain strong. Sometimes this is about listening to learn another
person’s perspective. Sometimes it is about finding the right words to say what you
intend to communicate. What you learn now about effective communication with your
parents or adult caregivers now will prepare you to have positive relationships
throughout your life.

‍
The Center for Parent and Teen Communication has pieces written for teens by teens
that are designed to strengthen your relationships. They include articles on how to
restore relationships that have experiences challenges.
