Mark emphasizes the importance of setting clear boundaries and values early on. He discusses how to communicate expectations and consequences with your teen, and offers guidance on when to intervene and how to handle situations after dangerous behavior has occurred. Above all, Mark reminds us to maintain a strong connection with our teens, holding them accountable while reinforcing our relationship with them.
