Scenario

When parent-teen relationships lose their language

My teenage daughter and I used to be close but this past year we've become strangers who share a house. We both keep trying to bridge the gap with the wrong tools — I lecture when I mean to connect and she shuts down when I think she means to share.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The old intimacies no longer fit the new people you're becoming, but neither of you knows how to build new ones.
