50 Questions for Teens
Feeling lost about what to talk to your teen about? You’re not alone. Take the guessing out of it. 50 questions approved by a licensed therapist to break the ice between you and your teenager!
Parenting a teenager means navigating a lot of silence punctuated by one-word answers. This printable list gives you 50 open-ended questions designed to spark real conversation — the kind that goes beyond "fine" and "I don't know." Use them at the dinner table, in the car, or whenever you want to reconnect and learn what's really going on in your teen's world.
-
Every question is open-ended and built to avoid the one-word "fine" response — they're designed to invite real conversation, not interrogation.
-
It’s written for early through late teens, though most questions work well with tweens too.
-
Pull one out during a car ride, dinner, or any low-pressure moment — no need to go in order or use them all at once.

If you’re reading this, then you’ve been a teen once. Feeling disconnected from those around you and not knowing what’s safe to talk about and what’s not. And you said, when you became a parent, you would be different. But now, you’ve arrived and you feel more lost than ever.
I created this list because you deserve to be empowered to talk to your teen, not just like you are shooting in the dark.
