Navigating through adolescence can require concerted effort and resilience. One of the biggest challenges for our tweens today is dealing with peer pressure, which can come in a variety of forms. Whether it’s the temptation to participate in risky behavior or succumbing to negative influences from peers, tackling peer pressure head-on is an essential life skill that must be mastered during this stage in life. In this blog post we will discuss a couple of strategies and tactics on how you as a parent can help your Tween understand and manage their relationships with peers in a positive manner while dealing with issues of peer pressure responsibly.

The beginning of the school year comes with its own set of challenges, especially for tweens. Your child might find themselves in a new schools or class, trying to make new friends, or taking on a new challenge. Whether this comes easy or is difficult for your child, it’s important to remind them to be kind and understanding towards others, as they navigate through these challenges in their own way. We want to encourage your Tween to use this time to spread kindness and remove the circle completely by being inclusive of everyone.
