    About the Episode
    What does the everyday environmentalist think about what it takes these days to raise teenagers to be the future citizens the world needs. What’s important for parents, aunties and uncles, and others to consider when we go to these years beyond the days of parental control and move more towards influencing future adults. If your teenager wants more, but doesn’t want to listen to this whole episode, then my teenager simplifies the episode in her “Teen Splain”.

    Host Bio & Links
    Are you a parent to a teenager? For most parents, the teenage years can be the most challenging. Parenthood will make the best of us rethink our fundamental values and question our preconceived beliefs. The Raising Greener Teens podcast invites listeners to use their skills of curiosity, research, and humour to further develop as experts in the care of their family and to help guide the teens in their care to do the same.

    Host Manda Aufochs Gillespie is the author of Green Mama & Green Mama-to-be, creator of the award-winning website thegreenmama.com, and founder of Folk University (folku.ca) and FolkU radio. She interviews doctors, naturopaths, sex educators, brain researchers, drug counsellors, parents who seem to be doing it better, and all sorts of interesting people in this series to provide inspiration to parents of teens and pre-teens, and—hopefully—teens themselves. Join Manda and her teenage daughter as they ask the experts: Is this the way it’s supposed to be?
