The purpose of this research study is to learn if a parenting program called Adolescent Mental Health Parenting Program for Child Adult Relationship Enhancement (AMP-CARE) can help parents have more confidence in parenting their teen and improve their knowledge about normal teen development and teen mental health. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does the AMP-CARE parenting program improve confidence in teen parenting and positive parenting? * Does the AMP-CARE parenting program improve parent knowledge about mental health?
Researchers will compare participants who complete the parenting program to those who do not.
Participants will:
* Complete 2 surveys, one at the start of the study and one 6 -12 weeks later * Half of the participants will be randomly picked to attend the 6 virtual AMP-CARE sessions right away. * The other half will have the opportunity to attend AMP-CARE after they complete the second survey.
