Answering Your Questions about Teen (and TWEEN!) Girls with Sissy and Caroline

The Paula Faris Show

Sissy and Caroline had so much good insight for us, I knew I had to bring them on again! Sissy and Caroline are back to answer all of your questions and talk about all things tween and teen girls.

From dating and sex to devices and social media, from modesty and mood swings to anxiety and building resilience….phew, we cover a ton of ground! Nothing was off-limits in this conversation.

I’ve loved hearing from so many of you that these conversations are helping you intentionally connect with your girls. I’ve also loved hearing from parents who have been reassured that we’re not going to lose our girls, but they’ll need us in new and different ways at every age. (This has me crying tears of joy!)

I hope you listen to this episode with your daughters so that this conversation can spark your own conversations and build connection in your relationship.

Have tween and teen boys? I’ve got you! We’ll be doing something similar very soon on how we can connect with our sons in these years, so stay tuned!

MOMS and DAUGHTERS listen to this episode together!
