[quote=Anonymous]Mom of teens and also a 6th grade teacher here: You need to have clear lines about what is not acceptable and that list needs to be short. Otherwise you end up in countless power struggles. So what’s on that list that gets checked immediately: Talking back in a mocking voice Any name calling or cursing Rolling eyes? Fighting that would be a waste of energy. I don’t argue with children, so talking back would be met with silence. As soon as it escalated to a mocking voice or name calling, then it would be met with swift consequences. Sometimes phones cause teens to act stupid and need to be removed. Honestly, I haven’t had to deal with this much with my kids. I remember my son (18) trying this in middle school. But it was shut down immediately. [/quote]
