    As our teens get older we face the reality that our voice is no longer the presence it once was and it is now one of many voices in their lives. Influences are everywhere. Their friends matter, like REALLY matter. Friends become everything, whether it be good or bad. Are we watching from afar or are we able to step in and voice our concerns? We brought in Marybeth Bock, Master of Public Health (MPH), to explain why parents should come from a place of being inquisitive rather than judgmental when it comes to who their child is spending their time with. Marybeth writes for numerous websites such as Raising Teens Today, Grown and Flown and Collegiate Parent. For more on Marybeth check out @mbbock.

    Our kids are growing up in a digital world whether we like it or not. They're trying to figure out who they are in a hyper-connected environment where everyone is watching. It's more important than ever for parents to understand the technology their kids are using, the content they could potentially be exposed to, and how to guide them to become responsible digital citizens. Dr. Devorah Heitner is the author of Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in a Digital World and Screenwise: Helping Kids Thrive (and Survive) in Their Digital World. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, and The Atlantic. She has a Ph.D. in Media/Technology & Society from Northwestern University and has taught at DePaul and Northwestern.

    On social media, in the news, and even from the government, children are receiving the message that being selfish, obnoxious, and cruel is okay. Research tells us that hate crimes among children and teens are on the rise while compassion and empathy are dropping. How are we as parents supposed to raise kind and compassionate kids when they're constantly exposed to imagery, negativity, and division that influences how they view the world? Melinda Wenner Moyer is a science and parenting journalist and author. She is a contributing editor at Scientific American magazine and a regular contributor and former columnist at The New York Times. Her first book, How To Raise Kids Who Aren’t Assholes, was published in July 2021 and won a gold medal in the 2022 Living Now Book Awards.

    Are you concerned that the boy(s) in your life might be holding back and not expressing the full range of human emotions because they might be limited to expressing themselves with traditional "masculine" emotions like anger, aggression, and boldness?

    Jason Wilson's purpose is to teach, train and transform boys into men who are physically conscious, mentally astute and spiritually strong enough to navigate through the pressures of this world without succumbing to their negative emotions.

    In 2020, Canadian Women & Sport did a study where they found that 62% of Canadian girls are not participating in any kind of sports. The study revealed that 1 in 3 girls drop out of sports versus 1 in 10 boys between the ages of 9-12 through to late adolescence and across their lifespans. How can we change the attitude towards exercise and sports for young girls?
