Summary

This week, we are talking about parenting teens, and sharing some ideas for ways to get through the unique challenges associated with parenting this age group. There seems to be a dearth of information out there in Catholic circles, mostly because parents want to respect the privacy of their own teenagers, but I worry that the silence leaves some struggling moms and dads (and teens!) feeling like they are all alone. You are not alone!

0:00.0	Girlfriends, episode number 64, The Truth About Teens.
0:10.0	Hello and welcome to Girlfriends.
0:12.8	I'm Danielle Bean.
0:13.9	I'm a wife and a mom, and I'm on a mission to help you know your worth as a woman
0:17.8	so you can find peace, balance, and joy in family living. This week,
0:22.3	we're talking about your worth at retreats in Illinois and Kansas, the beginning of baseball,
0:26.6	and I'm sharing some truth about teens from the terrible to the terrific. It's time to get
0:30.7	started. Here we go.
0:43.3	Hey, girlfriends, how are you? Glad you're here. Thanks for joining me for another episode of the Girlfriend's podcast. I'm happy that you're here. I hope you've had a good week.
0:49.1	I hope it is springtime wherever you are because it is not here. We've gotten more snow. It's still pretty cold,
0:56.7	but this is actually feeling warm. We're like in the 40s for today. This is Sunday that I'm
1:00.9	recording this. And through the coming week, it looks like it's going to be the 40s. And it's
1:05.4	pathetic, pathetic that I find that encouraging. But I'm going with it. I'm taking what I can get.

1:19.4	sun is stronger. I am just taking what I can get. And we're getting there. We are getting there.
1:24.4	I see hope on the horizon. I actually enjoyed some warm weather when I
1:29.1	went out this weekend. I was in Illinois, in Geneseo, Illinois for the Your Worthet Retreat that I was
1:36.1	giving out there at St. Malachies. And it was a wonderful weekend. I was there on Saturday. That was
1:42.1	yesterday. And it was, you know, a whirlwind trip,
1:45.4	but I went there and the day I arrived, it was beautiful weather. They were having like 75 degrees
1:52.0	sunny weather, which I guess was unusual for them. So they were all enjoying it too. And I got to soak up
1:56.7	a little bit of sun while we were getting that four or five inches of snow and slush back home
