Discovering Your Teen's Primary Love Language

Today we mostly chatted about life. Sometimes it’s messy, sometimes it’s hard, and sometimes it’s so wonderful, it takes your breath away and you wish you could capture it in a bottle. We sure love our families, and sometimes it’s just complicated!
Yes, teens are moody and difficult to read. This chapter encouraged us to really watch our kids and pay attention. They are constantly in a state of flux, so it makes sense that their preferences also change like the wind. If you can figure out their primary and maybe secondary love language, great; but don’t forget the other three languages. They need to experience all 5 love languages, so they can in turn speak those languages as adults.

Just love ‘em every way you can!

See you December 1st! We are discussing chapter 9, “Love and Anger: Help for Parents.” I’ll admit, now is when the book gets really good. We have a foundation of understanding our kids and these authors’ perspective on teens, and now we get in the trenches.

If you are behind on the book, forget about the chapters in between…just read chapter 9. Or not. J See ya tomorrow at Symposium at 10am!
