Hard to Get: Playing hard to get is still the way to go

Posted by: Sarah on: October 4, 2011

As crazy as it seems playing “hard to get” still works.  This does not mean endless games, but it does mean taking a deep breath, and having more patience than most of us possess.  Wait for the other person to make a move if you have at least laid down some hints.  There is something [...]

Relationships: Is this person “the one”?

Posted by: Sarah on: September 21, 2011

How do you know you have the “right one”?  The person who will lead to happiness.  This is a hard question on a lot of levels, and some of the most important things to consider are: Can you see your future without them? Are you committed to the relationship through thick and thin? Do you [...]

Teen Girls and Body Image: How we are losing the war

Posted by: Sarah on: September 20, 2011

Were did we go wrong?  Is it the magazines with super skinny models?  The TV shows full of people who must not eat?  The air-brushed bill-boards? When did we as a society make all the teenage girls, and women for that matter, feel so bad about the way their bodies were created that they want [...]

As kids transition from children to pre-teens to teens a few things remain the same for most kids.  They still need love, attention, and praise.  They also still crave the traditions from childhood like a special cake on their birthday etc.  Teens become independant so quickly in our modern society, and it is easy to [...]

Teens and Drinking: Epidemic?

Posted by: Sarah on: July 6, 2011

It is hard to believe the levels of teen drinking in our communities.  Sure there are the small groups of teens who manage to avoid it, and yet most end up drinking at one point or another.  This may be anything from an occasional drink at a party, to binge drinking on weekends, to drinking [...]

College Bound: Are You About to Waste Your Money?

Posted by: Sarah on: April 29, 2011

Lately I have seen too many college kids with one thing in common: they have no idea what they want to do or how to get there.  This may seem typical and ok.  We may think, “well of course they don’t know yet”.  The problem is that these students are getting degree that may not [...]

Teen Girls and Body Image

Posted by: Sarah on: October 14, 2010

I can’t tell you how many beautiful teenage girls I meet who feel ugly.  It is a crazy epidemic!  We all know who to blame: fashion magazines, TV, movies etc.  It still does not change how girls feel.  Fortunately there is a pretty easy fix.  This will sound crazy, especially for image obsessed teens, but…Don’t [...]

Dating Non Stop: Do you need to stop to find you?

Posted by: Sarah on: April 30, 2010

OK, so a lot of people I know struggle with the question of should they date someone or take time to “get to know” who they really are bla bla bla.  This is all very noble accept for the fact that most human beings hate to be alone.  We are just not set up, most [...]

Teens and Sex: When to start talking

Posted by: Sarah on: January 18, 2010

Not that you have missed the boat if you already have a teenager, and you haven’t really touched topics like sex and alcohol/drugs, but the boat is certainly on its way out to sea.  I suggest you run to the dock and jump before it is really too far gone! Every year younger and younger [...]

I get a lot of questions about sex from teens who are debating having sex for the first time.  The age old conundrums still exists.  Girls want their first time to be special, and boys tend to see it more as  a right of passage.  Deciding when to have sex is a very personal decision, [...]
