Sometimes just the littlest thing can go a long way. A little pinch of salt, can flavor an entire dish just right. A little pebble can make big ripples in a quiet lake. The littlest nugget of information can help effectiveness in parenting and relating to teenagers.
I have a little nugget I would like to share with you. There is a website that I have found to be VERY helpful in my ministering to teens and know it would be VERY helpful to you as a parent as well. The website is www.cpyu.org. CPYU stands for the Center for Parent Youth Understanding. On this website you will find a place where you can sign up to receive their weekly e-newsletter. I would encourage you to do so.
Every Thursday(ish) an email will be sent to you with all kinds of information about the newest trends in the teenage/youth culture. There are links to stories/articles about new trends and things teens are dealing with. Signing up for this newsletter and making it a part of your weekly reading is definitly worth it. Knowing your teen and the teenage world better will help to become more effective in parenting and ministering to teens.
Please take advantage of this resource and use it to your advantage.
In the fight!
