"Send Ben a text"

Do you feel like your teen is out of control? Are they angry, acting out, or even kicked out of school?

In this episode, I answer a message from a listener named Jodi. She’s a therapist who is worried about her niece’s 13-year-old son. He has ADHD and ODD and was just expelled from school. Now the family is thinking about sending him to a troubled youth camp.

I’ve been there. I got suspended from school as a teen — and it didn’t ruin my life. I share my story and give you tools to help your teen without shame, blame, or fear.

💡 What you’ll learn:

• Why expulsion isn’t the end
• What ADHD and ODD really mean
• How to connect with your teen
• Why control doesn’t work — but love does

You’re not alone. There is hope. Let’s figure this out together.
