Common Ground: A Resiliency Group for Parents and Teens- The Pressure to Be Perfect: Grades, Sports, Social Life & Expectations

This is a space where teens and caregivers come together to listen, learn, and grow. Here, every voice matters. We believe in sharing without judgment, respecting different perspectives, and finding connection through conversation. Let’s make this a place of empathy, honesty, and mutual support.

Please Note: Both parent and Teen will need to have a way to join the meeting as we will do a breakout group

This month’s topic is: “The Pressure to be Perfect; Grades, Sports, Social Life & Expectations

Discussion:

From schoolwork to social expectations, teens feel pressure from all directions — and caregivers often feel it too. This session explores perfectionism, burnout, comparison, and

the fear of falling short. Together, we’ll find ways to ease the pressure and support each other with compassion instead of expectations.
