All you want is for your teen to be happy again. It’s a tough balance as a parent to know how often to help your child or when to back off. There are moments where you know your child is struggling and you feel at a loss in how to help them. Every time you try to offer guidance, they shut down and roll their eyes. What you're looking for is support and guidance so that you can feel confident again and most importantly, bring your family back together.
