Your Teen developed out of personal passion but grew out of universal need.
We, Stephanie Silverman and Susan Borison saw that our own parenting concerns and fears resonated with most everyone we polled. While we were wondering whether our teens’ struggles were normal, or whether our parenting woes were typical, we saw other parents dealing with the same insecurities.
Unfortunately, the books and magazines we relied on when our children were younger didn’t help with our teenage years.
And so, Your Teen Media was born.
These days, we’re pleased to say that Your Teen is a leading source for parents seeking high-quality information and advice about raising teenagers.
We couldn’t be prouder.
