Parenting can be tough — especially when your once-chatty child starts shutting down, acting out, or pulling away. The tween years can feel like a confusing rollercoaster for both you and your child, filled with mood swings, tricky questions and sudden changes you weren’t quite ready for. If you’ve ever felt unsure about what to say, how to help, or even where to start, you’re not alone. That’s why this Let’s Talk Puberty webinar is here — to give you the support, knowledge, and tools to guide your child with more confidence.
