This is why they're bringing their common-sense expertise to Mamamia’s Help! I Have A Teenager. Every week Dr. Ginni and Jo will be answering your questions, and you can submit them at podcast@mamamia.com.au

Plus, Ginni and Jo have some advice for a parent who is concerned that her son doesn't have any close friends, and explains the benefits of being a 'floater'.
