ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Do you find yourself stuck in power struggles with your teen? In this episode, Dr. Mark Schillinger, founder of Challenging Teenage Sons and Young Men's Ultimate Weekend, shares how the Both-And Principle can transform the way you communicate with your teenager.
Many parents fall into the either-or mindset—either they enforce strict rules OR they show empathy. But what if you could do both?
Learn how to:
- Stay calm and assertive during conflicts
- Hold boundaries while validating your teen's emotions
- Improve respect and connection without giving up authority
- Respond instead of reacting, creating trust and cooperation
The Both-And approach helps parents avoid unnecessary arguments and power struggles while teaching teens accountability and self-regulation.
