## Resource

In this episode, Dr. Cam unpacks what teen secrecy actually means and why it is often less about defiance and more about development. You’ll hear why the usual parent response can backfire, what secrecy may be protecting, and how to respond in a way that keeps trust intact instead of pushing your teen further away.
