Raising Greener Teens

EcoParent Inc.www.spreaker.com
Are you a parent to a teenager? For most parents, the teenage years can be the most challenging. Parenthood will make the best of us rethink our fundamental values and question our preconceived beliefs. Raising the Greener Teen is a podcast that provides parents with a better understanding of the problems that arise when raising teenagers.

Our host Manda Aufochs Gillespie, the author of Green Mama & Green Mama-to-be, and creator of the award-winning website thegreenmama.com, brings research, real-world advice from experts, and a lot of humour to help you become experts in parenting teenagers. Join Manda, and occasionally her teenage and preteen daughters, as they ask the experts: Is this the way it’s supposed to be?
