I still have so many tender but challenging memories of my early teenage years. The teasing from classmates. The body changes that everyone seemed to notice. The life-changing conversations that at first felt fleeting but have stuck with me since. And now as a parent, I’m realizing that I play a significant role in how my own children experience this formative period in their lives. I can help guide them through the murky waters of middle school, but are they actually going to want that? Am I equipped to do it? Let’s tawk.

Let’s Tawk contains mature themes and may not be appropriate for all listeners.
