Dr Cam, a developmental psychologist and the author of Power Phrases for Parents guidebook and host of the Parenting Teens with Dr Cam podcast. She helps other parents to discover the words for starting those difficult conversations with their teenagers using her PRIME parenting method.

She asks us as parents to consider when we speak to our teens, and I quote, “Before we get into that emotional state where our brains get hijacked into that emotional state too, and we are not able to think rationally…. that’s kinda the state your teen is in permanently right now. So you want to think about what is your intention before you are in that state, what do I want to teach my child?… Am I trying to teach my child to be respectful, how to problem solve, better techniques to be able to manage their emotions instead of throwing temper tantrums?”

Dr Cam has her own interesting story of parenthood I will let her introduce to you and I know she walks the talk herself, leading by example for those of us who accept her invitation to learn and develop further communication skills with our own kids, and perhaps, even each other.
