Coming-of-age celebrations are a powerful tool to use when raising teenagers.  If you’re not sure what a coming-of-age celebration is, you are in for a treat! A coming-of-age celebration is a special occasion where you invite all of the important people in your teen's life to come together, celebrate your teen, and offer words of wisdom.  My son Noah turned 13 this past summer, and we hosted one of these celebrations. It was an incredible experience for him. In today's episode, Jennifer Brimhall gives us 3 reasons why we should hold these coming-of-celebrations for our teens.
