In the December 23rd edition of The Ladysmith Chronicle, I debuted my monthly column, called “Creative Parenting”.  Using a question and answer format, my goal is to help parents learn how to deal with difficult teenage issues.  Readers are encouraged to send me their questions and I will rack my brains for the answers and best strategies to build a healthy relationship between parents and teens.  If you have a question you would like addressed, email me at [1] peggy@grigor.org using the subject line:  Questions for Chronicle.  Your question may be printed, although I do not reveal any personal information. 

The first column addressed two questions.  The first was “What do you do when you know that something suspicious is going on, but you can’t prove it?”  The second was “What do you do when your teen talks back to you and is belligerent in front of your friends?”  For the answers to these and other quieries, look for my column, featured under “Creative Parenting” in the Chronicle, on the third Tuesday of each month.  For further information about my counseling services, be sure to check out my web site:  [2] www.peggygrigor.com.
