As many of you know, I am a big fan of Love Is Respect.org and they have posted a new resource, a power and control wheel for teens, specifically portraying realistic scenarios in video of teen dating experiences.
Each pie piece animates a different experience, and visual cues like these may be the best way for us to reach teens where they are most comfortable, in an electronic environment.
I encourage every parent of a teen or pre-teen to watch these as well, to be prepared for the conversations that may accompany the viewing, and to train yourselves to see the signs in your teen of potential problems before they get too big.
If you want help in getting the conversation started with your teen, or need a neutral location to address potential problems that you may already see, please don’t hesitate to contact MFT3 and we can set up a session together.
