It’s easy to look at something your middle schooler is struggling with today and start worrying about what it means for their future.
But your 12-, 13-, or 14-year-old is still becoming who they’re going to be.
In this episode of Parenting the Middle School Years, Joe shares an unfortunate 8th-grade photo featuring a mullet and an Iron Maiden T-shirt and the much bigger lesson hiding behind it.
We talk about why middle school is supposed to be messy, why parents need to stop projecting today’s problems into their child’s future, and why we should correct bad decisions without turning them into labels.
Joe also shares a simple challenge that can help your middle schooler see that you were once an insecure, awkward kid trying to figure things out too.
Your child may not have confidence yet. They may make mistakes. They may care way too much about what their friends think.
That’s a snapshot. It’s not the whole story.
Keep parenting. Keep listening. Keep setting boundaries. And keep believing in the person they’re becoming.
They’re not who they’re going to be.
