New Talk: Parenting Teens

Hope everyone had a good summer. As I head into the fall I am working on research for a new talk on loneliness. I have decided to also start work on a new talk for parents of teenagers. As a father of 2 teenagers, I find myself often being asked by parents about practical tools for parenting. I want to help parents understand their teens, empower their teens, and equip their teens in this crazy modern culture we are living in.
As I begin my research I would love to hear your best parents books, quotes, Ted talks, youtube videos, thoughts, personal tips and anything else you think might be good to address in this talk.
What topics should I cover?
Thanks for any help
How to just listen and be open without judgement or coming up with answers. I have a 16 yo daughter who struggles with depression suicidal thoughts among other things. I always have to remember to ask if she wants help fixing or is she just venting. Cause offer solution when she just wants to vent just pushes her away. And vice versa.i let her lead the conversation.
