I remember my dad's two favourite speeches about boys and the value of education! They were the same, just packaged differently in elementary school, at the beginning of High School, at the end of High School, and while attending University!
I love how practical this is! When my sons became teens I truly thought they had LOST THEIR MINDS. I wish I'd heard this back then. Especially with boys, they want that autonomy!
Made an agreement with my children before we got to teenage years that having a special friend would be best at junior in high school. Explained old enough to earn earn, close enough to graduation to finish if an unexpected event happens.
Thank you so very much! You said a lot of things i have recently learned to be very true! And also, thanks for your encouraging comment about how we are doing!❤😊
I'm surprised that you accept the American dating culture this much as Christians. I grew up in a youth church where we hung out in groups but had no dating culture. We were friends and there was no flirting or dating. People were typically at least in their twenties before they started dating, that is, almost ready to marry. And so more mature decisions could be made. I would not let my kids go off alone to date at 16, since it would serve no purpose.
You can be involved or they will sneak and do it behind your back. Also I grew up with this idea of dating to marry. I married very young to my first boyfriend who I was pressured by Christianity to marry. Who didn’t treat me well and it wasn’t the right match. But my parents approved because he was a christian. I would have known if I had experienced dating different people and got to know what was the right romantic match for me. American dating culture how so? Where do you live? Because most countries teens are dating or having romantic experiences. It’s very normal.

Long car rides with deep discussions of being charitable, treating others the way we expect to be treated ,and prayer works.
Dude could easily speak to us seculars. This is general insight that is useful to anyone.

You need to share those stories!!
I'm the queen of speeches. 😂
What a wonderful subject and presentation. 100% reflects both parents and kids actions and conversations.

I agree raising teenage boys in this day & age is really really hard

That’s right
Thank you for this comment. I always wondered why Americans allow their teens to date so early, isn't it fornication or is it a platonic relationship?

“To teach not to need me”, to be done. Sounds great but emotional to let go.
Thank you for this-Q&A at the end was hilarious!
This was excellent!
This is awesome and so helpful!!

Do you have advise on bed time for 15 year old girls. Do you just let them go when they want?
Mine are 24 and 20. The 24 year old is almost ready. The 20 year old thinks he knows it all. 🤦🏽♀️

Do these methods still apply to 17 year olds with addictions?
What if they like their dad more than me?
Ok
I will brick it?
I think he meant "shut it down."
Jesus made speeches, and we are hi children. Sooooo
