Be Sure to Ask the Right Questions
Is your teen going out with friends this weekend? If so, be sure to ask all the right questions. Here is my list - and yes, I sound like a broken record to my teens. So? I'm not going to stop asking because they are bored with my lack of creativity.

  • Who are you going with?
  • What will you be doing?
  • Where will that be taking place?
  • When will I hear from you? or When will you be home?
  • How can I contact you if I need to?
