The Problem With Your Teen Being Their Friend's 'Therapist'
Help! I Have A Teenager - A podcast by Mamamia Podcasts
Categories:
How much do you tell other parents of what you know their child is up to? It's a question we got from a listener this week, who has a great relationship with their teen and wants to make sure they don't break their trust. But when is the right time to step in, and inform another parent of their child's actions? And what happens if your child ends up acting as their friend's 'therapist'? Plus, another parent is worried about the level of toxic masculinity at their child's school, and wants to educate and inform their own son.
