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.

- 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.
