Earlier in the year we spoke with Steve Biddulph who said that kids these days are mentally a few years ahead of their actual age. And man am I noticing it with my 8yo daughter! It’s why tweens are now the new teens, according to our next guest. Amanda Stokes is an educator, mother to 3 and the Founder of Raising Strong Daughters.  Her new book ‘The Tween Mother’s Tool Book: Raising Strong Daughters’ is out now and she joins us with some advice (praise be).
