So if you’re asking yourself questions like: • ”Is this normal?” • ”Why is my teenager doing this?” • ”How do I get my child to stop?” • ”I am so frustrated. What do I do?” • ”Is anyone else experiencing this? I can’t be the only one.” • ”I am worried. What can I do?” Then YOU HAVE FOUND THE RIGHT PLACE! Hi! I am Kristina Campos. I am the founder of the Impactful Parent and my passion is creating better relationships between parents and their children.

The teen years don’t need to be difficult. Teenagers CAN have a special bond with their parents! Listen and discover the tools and techniques you need to create connections, build trust, and have a stress-free household. This is only the beginning!

Tip 1 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Expect the unexpected. Make sure you are ready to be flexible because things will likely not go as planned. Do your research. Be prepared.
Tip 2 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Know your limits when choosing a child and stick with it. Don't get pressured into taking on more than you want.
Tip 3 of 5 things you need to know before you foster to adopt: Resist projecting your own expectations onto your child. Find their strengths and help them develop them. They may not be interested or good at what you are good at.
