Here are the best year round posts for parenting teens and tweens!

These are the best year round posts for parenting teens. There are holiday and birthday gift guides. New driver. Graduation. Budgeting for college. Scholarship search. Ways to prep for college and adulthood. There are also posts that are helpful for different times of the year.


Raising teens can be a challenge. I am here to make gift giving easier. If there is one thing that I know, it is that with the expense of raising kids, we want the money we spend on them to make sense. To be the best choices for out kids. To not be a waste.

That’s where I come in. I have spoken to parents about what their teens have liked and what has not gone over well. I have researched and have found answers to the issues that we all face as parents of teens.

The other posts come from hours of research and real life experiences with our boys that will hopefully help you along the way.

This is all with the goal to help YOU with timely help by month that will make YOUR parenting journey easier.
