PARENTING TEENS | WHY YOU SHOULDN’T FOLLOW THE CROWD

We frequently warn our children about the dangers of peer pressure. We’re comfortable coaching our kids in ways that they can resist social influences to engage in risky behavior. But how much are our parenting decisions influenced by other parents? How can we, as parents, unite to set healthy boundaries and change those norms that make us uncomfortable or fearful? The conversation will be led by Syntero clinicians for a community conversation about parenting, parental peer pressure, and strategies to unite around healthy behaviors.
