Raising teenagers can feel like an uphill battle, especially when it comes to connecting with them. As they grow older, it seems like they have a radar for how “uncool” we are. Those once-loved jokes that got giggles from toddlers now only bring eye rolls from the teens. But fear not! A well-timed joke can still bring a smile—or even a laugh—from your hard-to-impress adolescent.
Research suggests that while the brain is always evolving, a significant amount of development occurs during the teenage years, making them a complex and dynamic bunch. By granting them some independence and supporting their interests, you can foster a sense of trust that will pay off later in life. One way to bridge the gap? Share some funny jokes!
