Dr. Ross Porter Stillpoint Family Resources : Connecting with Your Teenagers
Dr. Ross Porter, the founder of Stillpoint Family Resources, knows that raising teenagers is both a challenging and rewarding feat. Our interactions with teens requires a great deal of both thoughtfulness and patience, and as teacher, mentor and a father, he knows that the following tips may help those parents looking for a deeper connection with their adolescents.
• While it can be difficult to find a quiet moment alone with your teen, try to create sacred chunks of time, like meals. Setting the expectation that when your teenagers are home, they will be eating with the rest of the family with minimal distractions to encourage sharing and talking.
• While both parents and teens often find themselves with full schedules, try taking up a new hobby with your teen, like horseback riding or ice skating. Learning a new skill together can help manifest bonding moments.
• Volunteering is an excellent way to spend time with your teen while modeling kind and loving behavior. Choose a nonprofit organization, a faith-based organization, a school, or an event to donate your time and energy together.
Doctor Ross Porter launched Stillpoint Family Resources in 1998 with a desire to support families with special needs children as a result of his son, John Michael, who was born with Down syndrome. Dr Ross Porter Stillpoint is the Director of Faith Formation and Evangelization at St. Mel Catholic Church in Woodland Hills, California. Dr Ross Porter Stillpoint is currently putting together an empowerment curriculum specifically for teenagers, called Becoming the Hero of Your Own Story.
