I've been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately with my teenage son. He's 15, and while he's generally a good kid, he's been more withdrawn and moody than usual. I know it's a normal part of growing up, but I want to make sure I'm supporting him in the best way possible.
I’ve noticed him spending more time in his room, and though I want to respect his privacy, I’m worried I might be missing something more serious. Communication has been harder too—he's not as open as he used to be.
For those who've been through this, how did you navigate this stage? Any tips on maintaining a healthy connection or ways to encourage open conversation without pushing too hard? Appreciate any stories or advice from those who've managed to find a balance.
