When You Have Teenagers, You Still Need the Village

Parenting older kids is complicated. And also, they try to act like they don’t need you (or even like you!), and that can be super rough, too.

All this to say, my loves, if you’ve got a village, hold tight to it. Be as vital to it as it is to you. Parenting doesn’t get easier, it just gets different, and almost 15 years in, I’m finding I need my village more than ever.

Do you have a tight-knit village to help get you through the rough spots on your parenting journey?
