Talk to Your Teen Without Fighting: 5 Hard Conversations, Solved

English

Your child grew up between two worlds: the one at home and the one at school, on social media, and with friends in the United States. That clash isn't bad parenting, it's a real difference in context. This guide has scripts for five conversations: social media, going out, grades, bicultural identity, and tone.

When you finish it, you'll be able to:

- Reach social media agreements that last

- Negotiate going out and curfews

- Talk about grades without humiliating

- Write a family agreement negotiated with your teen

It's for you if:

- You're an immigrant parent with a teenager

- Conversations end in yelling or silence

- You feel like your teen lives in another world
