We all know teens can be hard to talk to even under the best of circumstances. With grunts and one-word answers so often being the norm, maybe it’s time to get them to answer some serious questions. And by serious, I mean seriously fun!

(Because seriously… life is too serious already!)

So, when you’re at the dinner table, driving them to practice, or maybe when you’re all gathered together, try tossing out a few of these fun questions to get your teen in on the conversation and maybe, get them laughing. Anything is better than the usual serious talks about homework, chores, and why their room is such a mess, right?

Pick from our list below or come up with your own questions and don’t forget to let your teen turn the tables on you! Here are 75 fun and funny questions to ask your teen:
