We have shifted gears this week from babies and toddlers to tweens and teens – and surprisingly there are many similarities! As this is an age group Luka and Kate know nothing about (yet!) we have picked the brain of super-mum of 5, Courtney Adamo to shed some light on what’s to come…
- What age is considered a tween and what is going on for our kids during this time
- How we can keep them close, but still let them have their independence
- How to set boundaries with our kids without seeming like the ‘mean parent?’ and what to do when they push back
- Social media, screens and technology – when should they have it and what boundaries are recommended
- Having the tough or awkward conversations with our tweens, and when these conversations shoudl begin (hint… they keep going forever!)
- and so much more!
