Episode notes

When does teenage experimentation become something parents need to take seriously? In this episode of Untangled we talk honestly about teenage alcohol, drug and gambling use. The changes parents should pay attention too and how to start difficult conversations without turning them into interrogations. We discuss why boundaries and connection can exist together.

For the parent who’s worries about pushing too hard but equally frightened of ignoring something important.
