How do you handle

those inevitable moments when your teen begins to doubt? 

Hi,

I’m Mark Gregston … with Parenting

Today’s Teens. 

From her earliest days, you

convince your little girl that she can accomplish anything.  Opportunities are limitless.  And the world is her oyster. 

But as kids move from childhood to

adolescence, they naturally become introspective and insecure.  And sometimes her private thoughts get a

little dark, like … “Why am I here?  And what’s my purpose?”

So

if your teen starts posing these daunting life questions … don’t panic!  This search for meaning is one of the most

empowering stages your teenager will ever go through.  Help her uncover her talents, strengths, and

passions … as she embarks on a lifelong quest for purpose. 

Self-confidence

rarely comes without a season of self-doubt. 

Mom, dad … don’t rescue your daughter. 

Instead, help her through it.
