When Your ‘Woke’ Teen Turns On You - a podcast by Mamamia Podcasts
from 2022-08-18T20:00
"I’m sick of being treated like an idiot when I don’t know something or get it wrong." This is what a listener wrote to us this week, about her opinionated teens who talk down to her. So how can she change their fights into dialogues, while still encouraging them to continue thinking for themselves?
Plus, Ginni and Jo hear from a mum who's teen daughter's periods are so bad she's missing school, and needs to know if there might be something more serious causing the pain.
