The Problem
We live in a world that tells us to be scared of the teenage years, whether as a teenager or parent
You must worry about how your child will turn out.
Your relationship with your child will end and the dreams you had for them will come to nothing
it is either they will end up pregnant or in prison
You might be wondering what happened to your sweet baby they are still there just discovering themselves and asking lots of questions
You used to talk about everything but your kids now hardly talks to you and when you talk it always seems to end in a fight
As a teenager
You must worry about falling pregnant, dropping out of school or become a criminal or you might end up not having a job
So much doom and gloom
It seems like all of a sudden no one trust you or understand you
The people who used to say that you are great it seems like they no longer thinks so
What’s happening to your body and emotions things are no longer the same
The Solution

It's time for both parties to be prepared for the teenage years and maximize on the experience. After all knowledge is power and applied knowledge brings change.
