Parent question:"I'm an estranged father. My kids don't respond to messages or pick up calls. Does someone have a suggestion of how I can reconnect?"
Note: Our youth volunteers are speaking from their personal experiences with their families, and the circumstances and approach to reconnecting may differ from family to family.
We have over 10 young people ready and willing to share their thoughts and experiences!
