Parenting Teen Boys: How to Stay Connected and Manage Power Struggles - Pt. 1 of 2

from Mothers of Boys Survival Guide · host Flame Digital Communications

Parenting teen boys can feel like one long power struggle—especially when they’re growing fast and pulling away.  In Part 1 of our conversation on the Mothers of Boys Survival Guide podcast, I’m joined by Casey O’Roarty—host of the Joyful Courage podcast and a trusted voice in teen parenting. We talk honestly about why the teen years are supposed to be messy, how power struggles sneak in, and what actually helps moms stay connected and influential (without losing their cool). This episode focuses on mindset shifts, language changes, and why caring for yourself is not optional—it’s essential. Listen to Part 2 for more practical tools and strategies. #MOBsurvivalguide #ParentingTeenBoys #BoyMomLife #TeenParenting #PositiveDiscipline #RaisingBoys 📚 Resources & links – Joyful Courage podcast – Joyful Courage: Calming the Drama and Taking Control of Your Parenting Journey – More episodes and resources at mothersofboys.life 📚 Grab Suzy Shaw’s Mothers of Boys Survival Guide 🔗 Visit http://motherofboys.life for resources, links, and more. 📌 Subscribe for more parenting tips and support for raising boys! ⭐⭐⭐ Mothers of Boys Survival Guide Podcast ⭐⭐⭐ https://mothersofboys.life/podcasts
