Teenagers, adolescents, young people. Whatever word used to describe a young adult, they serve as branding techniques. Each teenager is unique, complete with their own set of opinions, values and lifestyle. The teenage years are known for being a difficult time for both parent and teen, and here at MEANAGER™, we believe that creating an environment of understanding is the key to success.


The teen years are considered trying and awkward times for adolescents. While this of course is true, the parents of teens must endure those teen years right along with their often moody offspring. The parental/child relationship often becomes a vicious cycle during these years that can be challenging for both sides. Positive communication with your teen can reduce the amount of poor choices they opt to make, and that will drastically help to eliminate the severe and often tragic consequences of those poor decisions.


It is for this reason Mandy Knapper, proud parent of a teenager, founded MEANAGER, to create a forum for amused and often frustrated parents of teenagers, and the teenagers themselves. Through a blend of loving humor and recognizing she was not alone, Mandy sought the social networking of other parents raising teenagers, and that bond with other parents has created not only an online community, but a sought-after line of MEANAGER apparel as well. The input from the teens themselves creates the ideal forum for vital communication between teens and teens, parents and parents, and most importantly-parents and teens.


So welcome to MEANAGER, here with us you will find the resources that are relevant to you and your unique needs, the needs of MEANAGERS, their parents, friends and family. So go ahead, swap stories, vent and let out a good and certainly well-deserved laugh, you are among friends who truly understand.
