From the Other Side: Top 20 Things I Learned Parenting a Teen to 20
Episode 270
Saturday, 16 May, 2026
Send us Fan Mail Thank you so much for being here! In honor of my oldest's graduation from the teen years, here are the top 20 things that I learned about parenting teenagers. Not as someone who has all the answers - because clearly I do not - but just as someone who has not only survived the teen years for one child, but actually loved them!! My favorite parenting stage, so far! It's crazy how somehow the years that felt endless while you were in them suddenly feel impossibly short. Thank you for listening and being part of this community! Let's get social.
