Teenagers today are suffering from a pandemic of anxiety, depression, and loneliness - and it is up to us as parents to help steer them through the havoc of societal pressures and emotional barriers threatening their well-being. Katie Millar Wirig is a former Miss America contestant and a therapist who dissects the core issues that teens are facing today. She discusses the delicate balance between being our most “authentic” selves at home and being intentional about exercising kindness and compassion toward those we live with. She also talks about setting healthy boundaries with our teens, spending quality time with them, and having difficult but integral conversations while they are young and throughout their teen and adult years.

TAKEAWAYS
Most people don’t want to hear, “I love you.” They want to hear, “I understand you.”
When we feel shame and panic, we bury it
There are a lot of hormonal and endocrine issues when young children don’t get enough healthy touch
The main topics parents should be addressing with their teens include technology, dating, finances, school, goals, curfews, and social media

Our biggest struggle in parenting is understanding and communicating with one another, shares Karie Millar Wirig. Katie is an actress-turned-therapist who is offering some serious insight into how to connect emotionally with our teenagers. “We’re saying, ‘I love you,’ but there’s a communication barrier,” she explains, referring to the different love languages that our children may or may not respond to. She breaks down the five love languages: words of affirmation, service, gifts, physical touch, and quality time. Katie is the author of Becoming a Mean, Teen Parenting Machine: A step-by-step guide to transform your relationship with your teenager. “When they have a strong relationship with God, it will change their behavior more than any reward or punishment will ever do!” Katie reveals.

TAKEAWAYS
We want to see behavior change, but it’s more important to get to the root of the problem to see that happen
Parents should keep communication with their kids both creative and direct
Break free from reactive parenting and embrace proactive parenting
Teens often suffer from “spotlight syndrome,” which means they falsely believe everyone is watching them and judging them

The challenges of parenting in today’s upside down culture are many and varied, but Steve Hines offers valuable insight on how to deal with modern society’s most pressing problems. Steve is the author of Salt, Light, & Kids: Parenting Well in Today’s Culture. After being prompted by the Holy Spirit to write the book, Steve shares about the process of being counter cultural and parenting our children in a way that protects them from the sin of the world without over-sheltering them from it. “Satan is a master of desensitizing us to sin,” he shares, discussing pop culture and society’s glorification of sinful behavior through virtually every medium - especially social media and technology. “The biggest challenge is that the voices they’re hearing at younger and younger ages are just overwhelming,” he says.

TAKEAWAYS
Technology is not harmless - every medium is being used to negatively influence our kids’ hearts and minds
Much confusion and bad behavior are promoted on social media and TV, but we can teach our kids how to navigate the negative news
Everyone seems desensitized to the horrors of the news cycle, whether it’s natural disasters or school shootings
God will nudge you in the right direction on raising your kids when you’re praying, reading your Bible, and seeking Him regularly
