What would you do as a parent to save your struggling relationship with your kid?
Ann Coleman is a former attorney who specialized in divorce, child custody, and adoption cases. Through raising her adopted son, Ann found herself deep in research, becoming a parenting expert on how to talk with teenagers struggling with anxiety, substance abuse, and mental health challenges.
Sharing the details of her experiences as a parent, Ann walks us through her extensive research on the teenage brain and how it shaped her approach to parenting and led her to create resources for parents to use.
Throughout our conversation, Ann provides practical advice and highlights the need for self-awareness and intentional reactions in dealing with children's emotions.
Remember, reasoning with a child during emotional meltdowns often proves ineffective. Wait for a calm moment to have a thoughtful conversation.
Please enjoy my conversation with Ann Coleman.
