Faith

Middle School is a new and exciting time for kids, accompanied by lots of change. And with all that change comes the opportunity for a lot of growth in key areas, including faith. As kids make their way through the middle school years, they are transitioning from a time where their faith has primarily been a by-product of their parent’s faith and mostly reactive, rather than proactive. But these are the years when they take initiative and create a faith of their own. The best thing you can do is be a coach, not a teacher. Encourage and affirm their personal faith journey.

Relationships

Your middle schooler is changing fast. Changing their friends, changing their style, changing their interests, and yes—changing physically. As with any change, you have three options. You can resist it, and inevitably fail. You can ignore it, and become increasingly disconnected. Or you can talk about it, and probably suffer a fair amount of eye rolls. It’s ok, you’ll both survive.

Money

For whatever reason, many parents tend to shy away from talking to their kids about money. Whether it’s because you’re embarrassed by your past money-making decisions or simply haven’t carved out time to explain just what a mortgage is, money talk is pretty low on the list of priorities. If you want your child to grow up to be a financially responsible adult, however, it’s time to start talking to your kids today.

Technology

Whether it’s a gaming console, smartphone, or tablet, digital technology is probably somewhere near the top of your middle schooler’s wish list. You may even be considering giving your student their first phone. That’s a big step. And opening the door to on-demand internet access or social media can be understandably intimidating.
