If there’s tension at home… you know what it’s like to carry that stress with you throughout the day.  A strained relationship with your teen affects all areas of your life!

If you’re carrying a heavy burden for your family right now… plan some time to focus on your own health.  Battle-worn moms may think, “I can’t focus on myself when my kid needs so much help!  It seems selfish.”  That’s bogus.  We need to change our mindset if we want to grow strong families.

Strong, mature teens come from healthy homes.  Take care of yourself by focusing on your marriage, finding a support group of like-minded people and getting plenty of rest.

By taking care of yourself, you’re taking care of your teen.  Your son and daughter need you to be healthy!
