[quote=Anonymous]The OP has never parented a teem with mental health concerns. And no, the mental health concerns did not come from pushing, or not pushing. Mine in particular is one of three. Pushing (perceived at that) caused them to sink, not rise. I can spell really bad outcomes, from relationships with parents to self-esteem issues. And those are the least destructive. Whoever said no one can provide guidance on raising a teen who is not theirs is right. It's about supporting, not pushing, and it has to be calibrated to the individual. That said, I also think OP's goal was to stir up trouble.[/quote]
