[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The teenage years are supposed to be for slowly separating from parents and learning independence. That's a completely natural process and hard to do right now. So parents and teens who are ready for that next step, but can't do it are understandably frustrated. People are "aren't having any problems" with their teens at home might be in for a surprise when the day eventually comes they need to step out on their own. [/quote] We prepare ours but spending time together and doing things together from cooking to laundry to understanding money....[/quote] + 1 Model good behavior and habits, spend time with them, create a loving family & home life for them, give them a sense of security, listen to their concerns, understand and parent the child you have so that they have wings and roots. Show some empathy. This is a pandemic that will end one day. It is a waiting game but we can choose to really use this time well and emerge stronger. This is a golden opportunity for everyone to spend quality and quantity time with their children, with their parents, with their spouse - and support each other. [/quote]
