Remember

Not all questions will apply to all families. Some teens will be hesitant to answer some of the questions, this is natural and to be expected.  A parent should be careful not to be judgmental or criticize the answers that their  teenager gives. Listening with genuine interest will serve to keep the channels of communication open.

This set of questions is geared toward parents of teens. You may also want to see 75 Questions that will start a conversation with a teenager, which is designed for older adults to start a conversation with a teenager who is not their child.
