In Part 2 of this series, Shaunna & Andre walk through the junior high and high school years. They share practical specifics on driving, cooking, managing money and finances, and how they approach screens — treating them as a privilege and reward rather than a right. You’ll hear their philosophy on monitoring screens, when to confiscate them, and how good choices earn more freedom while poor choices naturally lead to fewer choices. If you want your teens to be truly prepared to lead their own lives or if you are trying to figure out how to navigate screens safely, this episode gives you the roadmap.
