Show Notes
"This episode first aired under the original name, The Parenting Reset Show. Now we are the Single Parenting Reset podcast–supporting single parents of tweens and teens with real talk on screen time, communication and managing behavior."
Is your tween cranky, distracted, or struggling to focus—and you're wondering if something deeper is going on?
In this episode, Tess sits down with sleep expert Missy to unpack how poor sleep habits may be at the root of your child’s mood swings, academic challenges, and even behavioral issues. You'll learn how to rebuild a healthy sleep routine, spot red flags like sleep apnea, and understand why screen time boundaries are critical to protecting your child’s brain and body.
- Discover how much sleep tweens and teens actually need—and why most aren't getting it.
- Learn how to set clear, effective boundaries around bedtime and screen time.
- Understand the connection between lack of sleep, misdiagnosed behavior problems, and emotional dysregulation.
Hit play now to reset your parenting approach around sleep—and create calm, healthy nights that set your child up for success.
