Welcome

I am every emotion times ten, I conform yet I’m rebellious, always obeying but somehow still an outlaw, always talking but never heard, I am a teenager.

Welcome to the parentsofteens.info website.

Parenting a teenager is like riding a rollercoaster – it’s full of ups and downs, twists and turns, and you find yourself hanging on for dear life! And just like a rollercoaster, the ride is over before you know it. We have only a few precious years to prepare our children to take on the world, and it is up to us to give them roots from which they can grow and wings to soar.

This website was developed to support you in what has sometimes been called “the toughest job you’ll ever love”… parenting an adolescent. We will provide you with information, understanding and guidance in parenting your teenage child. By coming together, we can raise our teens to be strong, successful adults.

Parentsofteens.info is a joint venture of the Maryland Teen Initiative and Parent Resources of Jewish Family Services of Baltimore, Maryland. Thanks to these two programs for their support in creating and launching this venture.
