Today's teens are DESPERATE for someone to listen to them — but all too often, their parents or grandparents shut them down with harsh or judgmental comments. Do you find yourself quickly telling your teen they're wrong when they talk to you? Or do you practice participatory listening? In today's devotional, Mark Gregston shares the importance of being a great listener for your teen and how to do it effectively.
