Changes

MONJORONSON:  That is correct.  You see when and if individuals delay childrearing until their late twenties, early thirties, by the time their children come into early adolescence, they are already in the mid-time of their lives, so that they have greater [[wisdom]] and they too, are in this pivotal area.  [[Parents]], too, are [[growing]], but they have the [[wisdom]] and [[experience]] to raise their [[children]] into becoming much more [[effective]] [[partners]] with [[society]].  Thank you.

Vicki:  And that pivotal age is one that I think you should probably [[discuss]].  [[Adolescence]]—it certainly provides its [[challenges]], for both the [[child]] and the [[parent]], so I think I’ll direct my questions that I have there, next.

Though we are aware that [[challenges]] are a [[necessary]] ingredient for [[growth]], I am still concerned with the amount of adverse, outside [[influences]] that impact our children and adolescents every day, and it is increasingly harder to shield or protect them from these [[influences]].  What do you recommend we do at this time?
