Teens are facing more stress and challenges than ever before

Teens today face so many unique and difficult stressors. From academic pressures- social media - friendships- school and more.

While parents play a vital role in supporting their teens, it’s common for teens to feel hesitant or embarrassed to discuss certain topics with them.
