Teen-tested Ideas for Parents to Stay Close

April 3, 2021 By i-Ville Family 2 Comments

Teenage years are the time when relationships between young adults and their parents become a little bit complex. Parents often notice that connecting to their children is difficult through this period in adolescent’s life. There are ways your action can help overcome this issue. The most important thing is to listen to your child and when needed, be the listener that is not judgmental. Even when their issues are not quite rational, show a lot of empathy.

  • Ask your teenager to teach you something they learned in school.
  • Instead of traditional discipline, talk to and listen to your children about their misbehavior.
