Your Turn: Door Slamming, Tricky Questions & Pubes.
The Teen Commandments inbox is bursting open again for your chance to dish the dirt on your precious teenagers.
This week a dad has solved the issue of teens slamming doors, a teenager has demanded to know the full details of his conception, whilst another proudly announces they’ve “found a pube”.
Sara and Clare’s quest to try to solve the ‘Bruh’ confusion continues and Teen Commandment’s favourite swearword is back (& may now be Clare’s catchphrase).

Teen Birthdays, Permed Fringes and Driving Lessons
This week, Sara discusses celebrating her teenage son’s birthday. She shares the one
(quite vital) thing missing on the night…
Driving lessons are on the agenda too, plus Clare shares the VERY clear guidelines her
kids have put in place for any mum taxi moments.
There’s also a throwback to the bad old days of permed fringes, blue eyeshadow and
shell suits. Oh, and watch out for Sara & Clare’s new range of
Goop-inspired candles in the shops… Probably never.

Teen Idols, Only Fans and Why Are They Ignoring Me?
Warning! This week’s episode contains a totally cringe confession of a mother's desperate need for attention from her teenage son.
To prevent their teenage daughters looking like new members of the Pussycat Dolls, Sara and Clare attempt to enforce the ‘clothing rule of 3’.
Meanwhile, there’s talk of sex toys, £90 polyester dresses, swearing at Alexa, and Tom Cruise even gets a mention.

Best friends Sara Cox and Clare Hamilton survived their chaotic teenage years together. Now they're back in the trenches with five teens between them - but armed with laughs, survival tactics and the kind of wisdom that only comes from being former rule-breakers themselves.
Each week they’ll reminisce and commiserate as they attempt to make sense of the often mind-boggling behaviour of modern teens…because the best teen advice comes from those who know every trick in the book.
Mum, dads, carers, parents, step-parents, grandparents and yes, even you teens, are welcome, encouraged even, to step into the world of The Teen Commandments.
When not parenting, riding her horse or walking her 3 dogs, or caring for her other numerous pets, Sara Cox can be found broadcasting on BBC Radio 2, presenting television shows and writing one of her 3 Sunday Times Best-selling books, Sara can be found in her garden shed with Clare recording this podcast.
Leaving the chaos of her own teenagers behind her, with a coffee in hand and headphones in, hairdresser and single mum Clare Hamilton hops on a train each week from her home in Manchester to travel to Sara’s for a sleepover and to record this podcast.
