Each stage of parenting has its own challenges, and one is not really harder than the other, just different. However, I have found that parenting teens has very unique trials. I have stepped onto the battle field with my teens over issues such as plans, movies, friends, music, and cell phones, just to name a few. Some of the best advice an older friend has given me is to pick and choose my battles carefully. Are issues such as the style of their hair as important as where they are spending their time? Not in the long run. Our relationship with our teenagers is more important than winning every battle. Let go of the minor issues, but stand firm on those that will impact their well being and future. Are you stuck in a power struggle with your teen? Give us a call. We can help. Comment here.
