My Tween is Pulling Away. Is That Normal?

As our kids grow up and pull away, it can feel like they're
breaking up with us. This week, Dr. Becky talks to a mom
wondering why her son feels so distant as he begins middle
school. He seems to have plenty of time to play video games and
talk to his friends but she feels like she doesn't know anything
about his life anymore.
