Parenting Those Offbeat Teens & Tweens

by Jennifer Chait on May 29th, 2008

This May the entire Lifestyles Channel has been doing a month long theme event called “Three Doors Down.” The idea; sort of a meet & greet (and introduction) deal among blogs in our b5media channel. So far I’ve written introduction posts for three new blogs:

Today, the last of my Three Doors Down - Parenting Tweens & Teens.

If you need some realistic teen and tween parenting advice, Charlene and Christine have got you covered. Check out:

Now, the offbeat parenting guide: if you’re a parent of teens (or a tween) some space is usually helpful. I’m not talking McMansion-like space, but some is a good plan. From an Offbeat perspective, maybe something a little like the cool Maritime Youth House would work for you.

The kids can go hang; get some energy out… that’s a good deal.

Another thing you’ll need - as an offbeat parent of an offbeat tween or teen is some fly furniture. Read not boring.
