What Your Teens Want You to Know But Won't Tell You

Modern teenagers are experiencing things previous generations did not, making it hard for parents to keep up. Find out what 21st-century teenagers really want and need from parents.

Teenagers today are experiencing things that previous generations didn't - they are tech-savvy like no generation before them, they are maturing earlier and living in a world where drugs and alcohol are often a rite of passage. As a parent, it can be difficult just to keep up. Like generations before them however, parents are often the last people today's teens are likely to talk to about their innermost fears and turmoils, which can lead to frustrations and disconnect on both sides. So what is it that teenagers actually want their parents to know about their lives, and what can parents do to help - not hinder - their relationship during adolescence?

In this revealing and surprising programme presented by teenagers themselves, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Scotland takes you into the teenage world to learn what today's teen actually wants (and needs) from you.
