New Parent Resource: Talking With and Listening to Adolescents

  • Posted by Adolescent Health Working Group

Adolescent Health Working Group published a new Parent Resource: Talking With and Listening to Adolescents.

Communication is the cornerstone of our relationships with our children. Creating a safe, open, and honest channel of communication helps us share information and hear what our youth thinks, needs, or is doing. Finding time is also a factor—youth at this age are spending more time working, hanging out with peers, and on social media, reducing the opportunity for conversations. Because adolescence is a time of developing personal identity, testing boundaries, and increasing independence from family, communicating with an adolescent is different from communicating with a younger child, so you may need to try new strategies.

Download the document here or share the link with young people and youth providers.

AHWG is committed to providing resources to support the health of adolescent youth. Please consider supporting AHWG with a donation to ensure that we can continue creating resources that support young people.
