This week on the podcast talk turns to tweens and what it takes to parent through what can be turbulent times.

With Abigail parenting a double tween household and Elle raising a 10-year-old, there’s plenty of personal stories about the various trials (and joys) of having tweens at home.

We look at some common behaviors you might have noticed in your tween, as well as the gender codes coming into play. And we discuss the unexpected tantrums that can happen during the tween years, what causes them, and how the Hand in Hand tools can be adapted to this age group.

If you are parenting tweens now, or will be soon, find out what to expect and get practical ideas you can use to keep connected as your child gets older.
