[quote=Anonymous]Teens don’t blindly follow your requests anymore. They are making most of their own decisions as teens. It’s difficult to adjust your parenting. Their decisions are sometimes bad ones, and can have life-long, even life-ending consequences. They need a lot of emotional support, but are less likely to ask for or accept it. I find neogotiating usually works better than punishing. I am lucky that I don’t find parenting a teen all that difficult. It’s my teen’s personality that makes it easy. [/quote]
