Needing clarification about my "Timothy"

Hello! I’m somewhat new here, and I’m working through the concept of defining my “Timothy,” and feeling a bit stuck. I write YA fiction, so my actual reader is a teenager. However, I understand that I can’t market directly to teens, and I’ve been told that my Timothy, in this case, would be a parent.

What I’m struggling with is how a children’s or YA fiction writer practically writes to a parent Timothy. So far, I haven’t come across much guidance in the podcasts or classes that addresses this specific situation, though I’m sure it’s probably out there.

I’m unsure what kind of content makes the most sense for marketing to parents in this context. One obvious option would be reviewing books for parents that are appropriate or worthwhile for Christian teens. But I’m wondering if it makes sense to narrow this focus further.

For example, I write YA fiction in a Jane Austen–inspired style. I’ve considered creating content for Christian moms around Jane Austen insights and Austen-like stories—such as book reviews, inspirational essays, or even a podcast for Christian moms who love Jane Austen or who have kids who enjoy that style of fiction. I’ve researched Austen extensively for many years, so I feel I could offer something of value.

My question is: am I thinking about this correctly, or am I mixing too many categories? Does it make sense to take a Jane Austen angle if the moms aren’t necessarily the ones reading the fiction I write? Or should the content be more directly focused on parenting teens and book selection rather than the literary style itself? Or am I way overthinking this!!?? 😅
