Everyone knows that summer is the time for taking the much awaited and sometimes dreaded, "family vacation". But as your teenager grows and moves toward his or her independence, sometimes he or she does not want to or for obligatory reasons can't attend.   In these cases what can or should a parent do? 

On todays SisterSpeak Saturday broadcast Marilyn and Sonja talk about how to dimenish your anxiety when faced with the dilemma of having to leave your teen home alone.  Effectively communicating your expectations to your teen before it becomes reality just might be heading off a battle in your home that could be tantamount to World War III.

SISTERSPEAK SATURDAY is an informal supportive forum for women to come together to talk about their issues, to talk about family, work and everything else in between.  It is a place where women can find take a short half hour from thier busy lives to relax, laugh, and spend some time with their sister/friends or even make some new ones.
