In this episode, we invite Ines to share how we can improve as parents, and discuss our experience as teens as we compare it to Ines’ experience. However, the discussion takes a sharp turn as Ines gets honest about our "overprotective" parenting style with her. Key Takeaways: Creating a space and time for honest conversations like this one is not easy but worthwhile. Parents should grant teenagers the time and space to make their own decisions and learn from their mistakes. Open communication and trust are crucial in parent-teenager relationships. Mindfulness towards teenagers' relationships and friendships is important to foster trust and understanding. Parents should be receptive to feedback and willing to adapt their parenting approach, and evolve the relationship to one of greater trust as the teenager grows in their desire for autonomy.
