(Advice for Teens from a Mom Who Was Once a Teen)
I don’t talk about my teenage years much.
Not because nothing happened, but because a lot did.
I successfully earned myself a pretty rough reputation as a teen, and it followed me straight through high school and into my early twenties. And while I’ve healed, grown, forgiven myself, and built a life I’m proud of, I would be lying if I said those years didn’t make things harder than they ever needed to be.
Now I’m a mom.
And I look at my daughter, standing on the edge of the tween and teen years, and I feel this deep urgency to tell her the things I wish someone had told me clearly, honestly, and without sugarcoating.
So this is my letter to her.
And maybe, if you’re raising a tween or teen, it’s a letter to your child too.

Read on as this article helps you understand the definitions of uninhabitable conditions versus those that do not fall into that definition, and other valuable information.
Creating a business out of home used to mean accepting a narrow range of potential. You’d rely on people spreading the word, visits to local events and the occasional flyer placed at the library or community center. This worked very well for many, but it left the vast majority of home-based businesses stuck at a given level of income.
The internet has changed all that about home-based businesses, but the trick these days is not just being online. The trick is advertising without spending like a corporation with a multi-million-dollar budget.
