Readers, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve taken on the position of Print Managing Editor of Your Teen Magazine for Parents. I love Your Teen’s smart, helpful, down-to-earth writing for parents of tweens and teens, and it’s an honor to be part of getting that writing to you. (Check it out! http://www.yourteenmag.com)
Now, for your part. Please let me know what you want to read about as a parent of 9-19 year olds – what you worry about, what makes you laugh, what moves your heart, and what you need to know. Email me anytime at sholbrook@yourteenmag.com. I’d love to hear from you.
