230. Building Trust with Your Teen is an Essential Parenting Strategy for Success

  • Summary

  • In this episode, I'm diving into the five common misunderstandings about trust that can trap parents and harm their relationships with their teens. Trust is a big issue, especially when teens engage in risky behaviors like lying, sneaking out, using substances, and other reckless actions. But what if we’re looking at trust all wrong? Here’s what we’ll cover:

    • Why teens break our trust: Understanding the reasons behind lies, sneaking, and other unwanted behaviors.
    • What trust really is (and isn't): Clarifying misconceptions about trust in parenting.
    • What builds trust and what breaks it: Key actions that can either strengthen or damage your relationship.
    • Why trust and love are separate—and why this is great news: How separating trust from love can change your perspective and improve all of your parenting interactions.
    • How trust isn’t necessary to parent well: Discover why trust isn’t the foundation of effective parenting you might think, and what to focus on instead for best results.

    Join me as we unpack these points and learn how to navigate trust issues with confidence, keeping your relationship with your teen strong and resilient.
