Ask Rachel anything
Knowing your values helps in parenting tweens and teens because our communication with our teenagers is based on a solid foundation. If we know why we think something matters we have clearer discussions about their behaviour and why we emphasise certain things.
We're also less fragile when our teens push back and want to challenge our ideas. Often they have the same values but are coming at them from a different angle.
Knowing our values helps us to find compromise.

The two games mentioned:
- Ransom Notes
- Hitster, if you haven’t already got this game it’s fantastic
We also love Taskmaster and Monopoly Deal, which is addictive
