Raising teens can be a beautiful endeavor and sometimes an incredible challenge. Raising teens in our modern day world is even more difficult. Not only do we deal with their ever-changing personalities, we also have to be aware of the media that floods their world daily, especially as it relates to their technology. Smartphones have taken over the way a teen views the world. And with thee smartphones are also the potential casualties of sexualized media, ones that we are aware of and others that we are not.
I was recently a panelist speaking about how to raise teenagers in a highly sexualized, digital world. I wanted to continue that conversation. Let's take a listen as I chat in The New Lounge with Abou Djaouga, Lanre Oyebanjo, Raynold Mensah, and Eric Henderson. All of these men are very well accomplished in their line of work, but they are even more incredible fathers...and fathers of teens.
