Parenting can be really lonely. When our children are young, the feelings of loneliness and/or isolation are offset by the excitement of the high expectations of the great things to come. When those great things turn out to be difficulties academically or emotionally, phone calls from other parents or schools and teachers to notify you of some behavior from your child that is shocking, it can become more lonely and isolated than ever. When your friends, family or co-workers are celebrating their children or teens milestones and you are just hoping to get through the day without a phone call from the school or police, day to day can become brutal.
At Bodin, we suggest that you talk to a professional, take care of yourself, your marriage and other relationships that will keep you from making important decisions for your child based on isolation, loneliness and fear.

Graduation is a milestone. Many in society take it for granted that a student will graduate High School. At Bodin, we recognize and honor that not all students are alike and for many, simply navigating the social hierarchy of a school campus can be crippling. So, to those who graduated, congratulations. To those who may be struggling, we can help. www.thebodingroup.com
Across the country, thousands of teens will graduate High School this month. It’s an exciting time for kids and parents alike. Many will be leaving home in a few months with the expectation of a few visits home over breaks and the summers.
Sadly, many of these students will find that once they get to college, things are not what they expected. They may have higher levels of anxiety and depression or succumb to the ever present party atmosphere that exists on almost all college campuses. They may “fail”. If this happens both student and parent may feel disappointed, sad and even angry.
There is hope. The Educational Consultants at Bodin can provide solid educational and treatment planning for young adults who are not thriving. Many parents may think that they cannot get help because the child is over 18 but our consultants can help families with strategies and boundary setting to enable appropriate change.

As a parent and a professional, I am constantly amazed at the attitude of indifference about young people and alcohol. In spite of the fact that it’s illegal and it is the cause of more deaths than all other drugs combined, both parents and teens seem to accept it’s use as a normal “right of passage”! I was amazed to find that I was alone in expecting that my teenage daughter would NOT drink before, during or after prom. Graduation is just a few weeks away and I stand by my position with my graduate…I will not allow alcohol or other drugs to be consumed with my knowledge and if she chooses to do so there will be appropriate consequences.
I also realize that many parents have struggling teens and are themselves struggling to assist their children navigate the difficulties that young people are faced with. By not seeking help, parents are raising the bar of tolerance in the home and at the same time increasing the isolative existence within their home!
