5 Rules for Texting/Messaging For Tweens and Teens
It seems like the moment you allow your tween or teen to start texting or messaging their friends - the dramas begin.
- Kids bombarding other kids with constant messages all afternoon and through the night.
- Kids thinking they have to be available to answer messages 24/7
- Paranoia / stress / anxiety over friends not replying to messages
- Friends threatening to withdraw friendship when messages aren’t answered
- Mis-mooding messages and assuming a negative tone of voice in messages from your friends
- Not understanding consent and forwarding messages and photos or screen-shots of over people’s messages
- Getting involved in drama cyclones online and not understanding how to step away from them
It’s EXHAUSTING!
That’s why I’m inviting you and your tween/teen to join me for a short, sharp 30-minute webinar where I’ll go through 5 easy to understand tips for having a more positive experience with texting and messaging.
Texting and messaging friends can be a brilliant way to stay connected and in touch. By following a few simple guidelines — they can dial down the drama and dial up the fun and connection.

I had my 12 year old daughter sitting with me and we have had several problems with this area we had a really good chat about your 5 tips after as well It really made it so clear and particularly liked tips to ‘avoid the drama cyclones. Thanks again and appreciate your time and effort that goes into these."
