Teen Stories: Why Open Communication Is Important

About this episode

Assuming we know all the challenges in our teens' lives can be a big mistake — many teens WANT to talk to their parents, but don't feel like there's an open door for dialogue. In this episode, Mark sits down with two Heartlight teens whose stories stress the significance of creating an environment where kids feel loved and valued. Mandy, a 15-year-old, opens up about the challenges she faced with communication, her involvement in risky behaviors like sexting and how being adopted influenced her feelings of belonging and acceptance. Don't miss these interviews!
