This episode of Teen Commandments contains some very naughty language,

so please do keep your children's ears away.

Welcome to Teen Commandments, the show where we try to untangle.

The often tangled up like old Christmas tree lights brains of our teenagers.

By the time this goes out, it is the 29th of December, 2025.

And Claire, it's lovely to see you. And by now, people of course, they'll have eaten too much, they'll have drank too much. There may have been family arguments. The teens may be sloth-like in their beds or on the couch.

Or it may have...

Oh yeah, the present pile. Will you move your present pile and take it upstairs, you know,

on the big day when they've unwrapped it all,

and it's all there all neatly stacked up and stays on the couch for like four days,

and the dogs keep jumping on it.

So 29, so a little bit later on we'll have to talk about our parenting resolutions, of course.

We are going to talk as well just about this bit in between Christmas and New Year

and how exhausting it can be.

Oh, Claire, are you all right?

There was a cuffle there.

Yeah, my phone's still on.

That's okay.

Who's trying to get in touch with you?

Oh, it's the salon.

Oh, really?
