Many teen girls discover fashion before they enter high school and every year seems to be more difficult with them wanting the latest fashions and having the same clothes everybody else has at school.

My guest this week is Teresa Smolinski of http://kids-in-biz.com . She is the mother of two teenage daughters and she cringes when it comes time to shop at the mall because of the problems both of her athletic daughters have had with clothes not fitting properly.

Teresa shares some tips for helping our teen daughters learn how to accept their bodies and how to shop and sort through the different styles to find something that suits their body type. Although it may seem too young to have this conversation with them, it might eliminate many wasted tears as they leave the stores empty-handed.

Teresa also has a great special report with 83 ways for kids to make money so they can learn that mom and dad are not the only resource for expensive, fashionable clothes. Check it out at http://kidsbusinessideas.com .

And if you would like YOUR teen to be inspired by Teresa’s entreprenurial daughters, check out Tessa & Laura’s business at http://www.pre-wrap.com .

    Great show, this is how my family is run too. Our teens have to earn the money if they want something that is out of our normal budget. We have taken this to the point that they know they will have to get a job to pay for drivers insurance, gas, prom, dances, and to help with college expenses. They know they have to budget to get where they want to go. We have seen so many kids that do not have drive or ambition because everything has been handed to them on s silver platter. These kids and now adults have had a very difficult time adjusting to being an adult. They over extend themselves with credits cards and can’t reign their spending in.
    They have had a very difficult time completing their education and most have failed the first two years in college. Please let me know what you think about it.

    Thanks for the great show and can’t wait to hear more.

Got something to say?
