Can managing teenagers during summer break really be a joyful experience? We kick off the summer (after a brief hiatus) of "Dumpster Diving with Janice and Jane" by sharing the pandemonium and side-splitting moments of having our kids home for the summer. From setting boundaries to keeping them entertained, and juggling work and relationships, we recount our personal stories and challenges. Whether you have high schoolers or college-goers, you'll relate to the trials and triumphs of balancing a bustling household.

Could summer jobs and volunteering be the key to teaching life skills and fostering independence in teens? We dive into the practicalities of keeping teens engaged with meaningful activities, from summer jobs to creative volunteering opportunities. Financial boundaries and the complexities of parenting rules around driving and alcohol are tackled head-on, emphasizing the importance of clear, consistent communication and responsible behavior. Tune in for a candid, humorous, and insightful discussion on the evolving nature of parenting across different age groups, and learn how to foster trust and accountability in your family.
