Summary

In today’s repeat episode, we talk about the pressure cooker that comes with Grade 11 decision-making. Are teens really supposed to know what they want to do with the rest of their lives before they’ve even finished high school? Apparently. Because here in Canada, what you choose now dictates what courses you take, and that dictates what doors stay open—or close. Kids are feeling the weight of “figuring it all out” way too soon. 


This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need to for your teens & tweens. We've uncovered every parenting issue, so you don't have too.
