S2 Ep 9 - Challenging teen behaviours

If you're a parent, you'll know that teenagers present us with many challenging behaviours! And, whether you like it or not, this is normal. So, how do we deal with these behaviours? The key is communication. And that can mean biting our tongues, listening and letting our teens talk. And when we go offer correction, getting the timing right is important.
