Know Yourself - Know Each Other: Raising Resilient Teens-Building Bridges Between Generations - 6-week Program

Parenting teens and tweens can feel like an emotional rollercoaster—but what if their "attitude" is actually just their unique personality emerging? At YOU Life Skills and Leadership Educational Foundation, we believe most parent-tween conflicts come from personality differences, not just defiance. Over six engaging sessions, participants will delve deep into the concept of "teenitude," a term we use to describe the often-misunderstood emergence of tweens’ identities and personalities. Each week, we'll explore different aspects of this critical developmental stage, equipping parents with practical strategies to turn conflict into connection.

In this 6-week course, you'll learn to:

• Discover the difference between Discover the difference between teenitude (self-leadership) and attitude (rebellion)
• Connect the pieces of the Personality Puzzle as you learn how identity and personality shape behavior
• Learn why tweens push our buttons (and how we push theirs)
• Cultivate empathy and connection instead of frustration
• Celebrate Growth and Look Ahead with Optimism

Parents, it’s time to enjoy the tween and teen years! This isn’t just about managing behavior; it’s about building meaningful relationships and preparing teens for a successful future.
