Want to build
confidence and resilience in your teen?
We've got tools to help you!
Self-talk, outlook, grit...these shape your teen's life.
If you aren't influencing your teenager's mindset, the world around them will be their influence.
Hey! Brandon and Stephanie here. We started using these tools with our own kids (we have 6 in our blended family).
Having gone through our own hardships in life, we know that the way you look at things can make all the difference! So why not start teaching that to our kids NOW?
And between Brandon's experience as a middle school principal and studies showing that mental health of teens today is declining - we want to share these with other parents who want the best for their kids.
Did you know that teens who feel supported by their parents are 70% less likely to suffer from depression.
Open communication between parents and teens increases resilience and positivity.
Kids can be hard to crack, especially in those teen years. There will be frustration and awkward silence. There will be one word answers and 'I don't know's. But DON'T stop connecting when it seems like they have no interest. They want to know you care, they need to know you believe in them.
We believe teens need to be taught more life skills, like:
Controling our reactions
to life events
Overcoming stumbling blocks in life
Facing new & unknown
situations
Keeping our mind focused on the good
Most of all, teens need to consistently hear encouragement from their parents.
Our tools will help you:
- Be an encouragement through daily texts
- Have more meaningful conversations with a weekly keyword and conversation questions
- Push your teen to grow with a monthly action challenge
Your teen will learn to self-reflect, articulate their thoughts and you'll grow a stronger connection. Like learning any subject or sport, building strong mindset skills takes time, repetition and consistency.
So what's inside?
Tools tailored for parents of teens. Our intentional and regular prompts take the guess work out of what to say and how to build up your teen's outlook.
DAILY
Mindset Messages & Message Library
We'll email you each Sunday 5 encouraging messages (one for each weekday). You can then copy and pass along to your teen, being an encouraging voice to them.
Extra bonus - we think these message will help you as a parent grow, too!
WEEKLY
Conversation Prompts
Each week you'll get a "Word of the Week" with 3 questions your family can talk through over dinner.
It's fun to see how each person may answer the same question differently. Your family will grow in understanding each other and get to see things from another perspective.
MONTHLY
Challenge to Take Action
Learning isn't complete without action. These actions help you spread kindness, build positive relationships, take care of your mental wellbeing and care for your physical body.
The whole family can participate in these and share your experiences throughout the month!

I love this! The real magic happens when I know what's going on with my daughter and I can pick a message that correlates. It really helps the lesson sink in. And I never have to worry about find the right words, just look through this month's options and copy and paste!

This is now part of my morning routine - login, find a message, send to my sons. It's easy and it gives us something to talk about on the way home from school.

Did You See My Text is a game-changer for us parents! The messages are like little nuggets of wisdom that help me get through to my teen. It's made talking about tough stuff way easier and brought us closer. So glad I found this!
