There’s an enormous wave of disconnectedness sweeping across our culture… especially affecting our teens. And the sense of not being connected is having a dramatic impact on relationships!

Hi, I’m Mark Gregston… with Parenting Today’s Teens.

You’re probably thinking… Yeah, but my teen is connecting with people all the time! I can’t get him to stop texting!

Texting, tweeting, posting on Facebook… are actually hindering real connection… instead of promoting it. It’s impersonal. Erratic. Alienating. But …you and I can’t “fix” the culture… and we can’t force our kids to start connecting.

What you can do is take steps to ensure they have at least one meaningful relationship. With you!

Spend time together. Face to face. Share your own struggles. Ask thoughtful questions. They’re all good steps to connecting with your teen!
