[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lose your phone and your computer and all electronics and everything that gives pleasure for long enough to know that you are, in fact, the boss of him. Don't cave in. Make it hurt.[/quote] This works for me.[/quote] [b]Parental tantrums and footstomping behavior[/b] are ineffective and actually lead to the type of teen defiance on display. [/quote] You mean being an actual parent? Is that what we're calling it these days?[/quote] That isn’t “being a parent.” That is “reacting immaturely to being challenged” and lashing out. If your kids behave like OP’s, it’s almost certainly a reflection of shitty parenting behaviors like this. Doing things like confiscating phones for back talking/rude behavior? Ineffective tactics that just demonstrate the parents doesn’t know what they’re doing. Only really bad parents take this approach (and then announce they’re “being a parent”).[/quote]
