[quote=Anonymous]—phones downstairs at night. —more often than not they need a listening ear more than a lecture or lesson —let them choose their path. You may want more for them, but they need to make their own mistakes —find reasons to be together (walking the dog, running errands) even if you are just next to each other, no need to talk all the time —don’t take things so personally —but also don’t let them use you as a punching bag —it’s okay to say no!!! Teens who get whatever they want are NOT happier in the long run —make them do chores, they’ll appreciate it later when they have some knowledge and practice cleaning/cooking/organizing[/quote]
