Parenting teens can be amazing and terrible and everything in between. Our guest today, Melanie Prather Studer, is a wife, mom, educator, speaker, and parenting mentor. Her blog Parenting High Schoolers shares ideas for parents of teens, mom self-care, resources, insights, and inspiration for you as you travel this road called life.

Today we discuss…

• The struggle Mel had finding tools to help her with parenting teenagers
• Shut doors, cell phones, and being proactive instead of being reactive to changes in relationships
• The beauty of car-conversations
• The biggest challenges of parenting teens
• The huge benefit of a mentor mom…that mom who is a few steps ahead of you and can help answer your burning questions
• Using mistakes, yours or your teen’s, as fuel for deeper conversations
