[quote=Anonymous]Depends on the teens you have. And it’s a process that starts from when they’re very young. My teens are very well behaved, but it’s been a long road of being consistent and have boundaries and expectations and routines. So now if they make a poor choice it’s a discussion first and then we go from there. They won’t often repeat. We don’t have to ground them because they make decent choices. Poor tones or attitudes are always from them being hungry tired or anxious, so we talk about proper tone once they’re feeling more like themselves. We have good relationships with them and we are open and honest. I’m not afraid to apologize to them and so they can to us. I don’t think this is something you just turn on or off at their age.
