Helping or Hurting? Setting Realistic Expectations for Your Teen

In this devotional, Mark talks about the expectations we set for our teens. He cautions us against setting expectations so high that our teens feel as though we won't love them if they fail. He reminds us that the most important thing is to show them unconditional love. As parents, you're encouraged to set high standards and challenge them — without letting those standards exclude them if they make a mistake — the same way nothing eliminates us from God's family.For more from Mark on this topic, enroll in our Bridging the Gap e-course: bit.ly/bridging-the-gap-courseParenting Today's Teens is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.
