Parenting Unfiltered: Our Kid Is Hanging With The Wrong Crowd

We are brining you one of your favourite episodes on this holiday Monday. As our teens get older, we start to realize something big: our voice — the one they used to hang on every word of — isn’t the loudest in their world anymore. Suddenly, we’re just one of many voices competing for space. Their friends matter. Like, really matter. The people they hang out with can shape everything — for better or worse. Are we on the sidelines watching it all unfold, or are we still able to step in and say, “Hey… I’m not sure about this”? We brought in Marybeth Bock, MPH (Master of Public Health), to talk about how parents can approach these moments from a place of curiosity instead of judgment — and why that shift can make all the difference. Marybeth writes for platforms like Raising Teens Today, Grown and Flown, and Collegiate Parent, and she gets it.
