In today’s culture, teens face an unprecedented access to information.  Answers to any question are at our fingertips.

We all enjoy Googling a topic when we need a solution.  But there’s a downside to the information age.

Our kids are confused by a diversity of answers to any question.  The Encyclopedia Britannica is no longer the final authority.  There are thousands of sources to choose from.  So, teens start to wonder … Which source is right?  Who do I trust?  My parents are only one source of wisdom.  If I don’t like what they say … I can find another answer!

So here’s the warning, mom and dad … stay on your toes!  Make sure you adjust to changing times … in order to understand your teen.
