Episode 46: Parenting Cougar Cubs—Teens and Adults. They’re “Grown”…or grown “ish”…So Why Am I Still Worried?
from Cougar College · host Krissy Feighery and Liz Mills
We spend years counting down to milestones—driving, graduation, moving out, becoming independent. Then one day, they’re technically grown, making their own decisions, and somehow the worrying doesn’t stop. It just changes. In this episode, we’re talking about the unique challenges of parenting teens and adult children: learning when to step in, when to stay quiet, and how to support them without trying to control the outcome. If you’ve ever found yourself lying awake wondering if your “grown” child made it home, ate a vegetable, or is making good life choices, this conversation is for you. Because no matter how old our Cougar Cubs get, they’ll always be our babies—and apparently, that concern doesn’t come with an expiration date. 🤭⌚️May you end your day wiser🐾Send us Fan MailSupport the showPurchase an official Cougar College Hat!https://www.kfstudioshandmade.com/exclusive-hatsFollow our blog on Substack! https://substack.com/@cougarcollegeFollow us on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/cougarcollege/
