Other Practices
When parenting your teen becomes a challenge, here are a few more tips to remember:
- Think encouragement, not bribes and rewards.
- Discipline -- don’t punish. Set reasonable consequences.
- Influence and empower.
- Never give up.
Remember your purpose as a parent is to have your teen develop skills, character, courage, self-esteem, and responsibilities.
A final tip: provide unconditional love, in good times and in bad.
