"Dear Mamas, I've noticed on the news recently, that many teenagers are feeling empowered and discovering that they really do have a voice and a great purpose in this world. Like every other parent, I want my children to feel a sense of purpose too. How can I help my young children (7, 9 and 12) begin to understand that they really do have a great purpose? And that it doesn't have to have anything to do with politics?"

Empowerment doesn't have to be political. We took this question to Mama Teri on Friday's "What Would Mama Do?" and got her thoughts on the question, and on how to teach your children to embrace their purpose in life. Great segment!

"What Would Mama Do?" is sponsored by Moor Coffee Company, and airs every weeknight on American Ground Radio.
