    “The Sweet Valley High Books Made Middle School Easier for Me.”

    “My Daughter’s a New Driver and I’m Learning How to Let Go.”

    “Bonding with My Kids at AnimeCon.”

    These are all titles of essays you’ll find at Your Teen, a print and online magazine for parents of middle and high school students. Managing editor Sharon Holbrook looks for optimistic, inclusive pieces that engage readers with excellent reporting, as well as compelling personal essays about parenting or about the experience of being a pre-teen or teen from adolescent writers themselves.
