The Subtle Art of (Not)
Telling Your Teen
What to Read
Show Notes
BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS:
- DON’T tell your teen what to read!
- Try to avoid censoring (“Don’t do” = “Must do”)
- Figure out what your teen is reading and join them
- If there is something you want your teen to read, be SUBTLE about suggesting it
- Remember that, at first, this might not generate huge, life-altering discussions – but keep at it!
- The idea is for you to show up, consistently, undaunted by rejection, and let your teen know you value them and want to know them
