Every parent of a teenager has experienced the eye roll. At CityPrep, we help parents bridge the gap by understanding adolescent development and adjusting communication strategies.

Why Teens Disengage

The eye roll is developmental, driven by the push for autonomy. For more on fostering independence, see our guide on when to step back. You can also find parenting tips on Psychology Today.

Strategies That Work

Listen more than you talk and lead with curiosity. For more on navigating social dynamics, read our post on friendship red flags. This is a key part of building empathy and kindness.
