Teenagers can be rude and disrespectful at times. While some defiance during the teenage years is normal, here are five things for parents to remember to help them deal with it.
They're still the children their parents have raised; they just may be testing their boundaries and limits.
It doesn’t feel fair. We treat our children with love; we feed them, support them, and do our best to take care of their needs. Yet when they becomeat us and tell us we couldn’t possibly understand them, and they argue about anything at the drop of a hat. This can be very hard to take when we’ve done our best to show them they are loved and cared about. It can be emotionally draining and overwhelming.
During these difficult years for us and them, here are five things to remember that might make things a little easier.Normal? It certainly may not feel normal. However, in their teenage years, children need to establish their own identities. This means they may be breaking away and rejecting many facets of their parents’ norms in order to create their own.
The key is to recognize that we are the parents. Ultimately, we are the ones who have the authority. That authority may be challenged; however, if we stay in our intellect and don’t allow ourselves to become emotionally overwhelmed, then hopefully, our teen will fall in line. The less we become emotionally caught by the situation, the harder it is for our teen to escalate the conflict.Just because our children challenge our rules and household norms doesn’t mean they’ve forgotten them.
