Mom, Dad, when was the last time you and your child went out and did something fun?

What teens want more than anything else is relationship. And one of the best ways I know to build relationships is through sharing experiences.

So my challenge for you this week is this: go do something fun with your teen! Try cycling, horseback riding, skateboarding, or paintballing, cooking, baking, sculpting, or hiking, scuba diving, snorkeling, jet skiing, or white water rafting. Go to a concert or watch a movie. Make up your own list, but you get the point, do something fun!

Before you know it, your little boy will be all grown up and on his own. So don’t wait any longer! Start building the relationship today.
