Summer with your teen should not feel like a full-time job.

But if you are always reminding, chasing, checking, nagging, and managing everything, it is no wonder you feel worn out.

In this episode, Ben talks about 7 ways to overcome mom fatigue with your teen by stepping out of the “summer police” role. You will learn why your teen may not be taking responsibility, how you may be carrying too much, and how to start giving responsibility back in a way that actually helps your teen grow.

You will also learn how to stop managing every chore, screen time limit, bedtime, and attitude problem without giving up or letting your teen run the house.

This episode will help you see:

Why reminding all day keeps you stuck
How to stop carrying your teen’s responsibility
