Regarding “A Troubled Teen” vs “A Terrific Teen”, I have a few thoughts.
No one likes to hear that another person is wonderful. Unfortunately, human instinct for many seems to be to want to tear down the “terrific” and “perfect” people.
Ultimately the name should be what Will feels comfortable with since he is the subject of your show.
To relate, I named my show “Bad Dad Radio” and my online persona “Bad Dad.” Am I really a horrible person? Depends on the way you look at it. Personally I don’t think so. I tend to be very critical of myself, so I developed a show to provide inspiration to others. My quest is continuous improvement and to help other struggling people realize they are not alone and shouldn’t give up on trying to improve parenting skills and relationships.
Funny thing is, I suspect there are people who will never listen to my show because they make assumptions based on the name. That’s fine. I’d rather focus on the folks who took a risk instead.
Hope that helps.
