Breaking the Silence by Building Trust

💡 Struggling to connect with your teen? Do they shut down, give one-word answers, or seem to keep you at arm’s length?

You’re not alone. The teen years bring big emotions, changing friendships, and growing independence—and often, parents feel left out.

But here’s the truth: You can rebuild trust and open up the lines of communication, no matter where you are in your journey.

LEARN HOW!

DOES THIS RESONATE WITH YOU?

Your daughter walks in the front door after a long day at school. She throws her 50-pound backpack on the couch and walks into the kitchen foraging for a snack. She slams the refrigerator door and plops onto the couch empty handed. You are holding your breath waiting for the right time to say “hi”. You can feel the tension emanating from her.

THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING.

Clearly there is something wrong with her. Something is bothering her. But how do you start a conversation without setting her off? How can you be there for her without making things worse?

YOUR OPENING LINE IS CRUCIAL.

So you go with the all-time favorite parenting greeting. “How was your day?” Her response is an eye roll and a curt AND completely obligatory “FINE”. She gets up from the couch and stomps up to her room and closes the door behind her.

SHE HAS MADE HER STANCE FIRM. SHE WANTS HER SPACE.

Because you love her, you really want to know what is bothering her. You want her to talk to you and to open up about her day. You want her to share with you her highs and lows and ups and downs. You haven’t seen her all day after all!

YOU WANT TO KNOW.

You can’t make her talk.

But you can make sure she knows that she can trust you. She can trust that…

You will create a safe and loving space for her.
You will leave her feeling secure and appreciated.
You will stay calm and compassionate.
You will work hard to see her point of view
