 Tips for handling teenagers.


Hey everyone! As you know here we discuss different tips for parents in different aspects of parenthood and life.

So, in this post I am going to discuss some tips for handling your teens. Teens are more challenging to deal with than any stubborn child. They have their own thinking patterns and they judge the world on their own standards.

If you feel that your teen is going towards wrong way then it will become more difficult to stop them as their way of looking at world is different from yours. 

I recommend you to be polite and patient with your teens because they are in an emotional stage. They see the world with their eyes and judge things on their own perception.


Avoid scolding your teen:

First of all you should avoid scolding them if you feel that they are doing something wrong. Because when you will scold them they will be annoyed with you and may be they develop negative feelings for you. This would be harmful for your relationship with your kid as well as their personality will also be affected. 

Controlling screen time:

If your kid is too much screen oriented and you are worried about it, then there are many ways to make them busy in some healthy activities so that you can control their screen time.
Some of these activities includes encouraging them to do the activities that are their hobbies like:
  • Painting 
  • Photography 
  • Playing games like: football, hockey, cricket, volleyball, basketball etc
  • Creative writing 
  • Visiting historical places 
  • Collecting stamps, tickets, coins etc. 
  • Doing some microtasks 
And much more. 

Talk to them:

Talk to your teenager usually the topics they are interested in. It will help you to better understand their thoughts and opinions. Don't try to suppress them with your opinions, ask for their opinions in small decisions like where should we go for vacation, in which field they want to do further studies etc.

Befriend with your teens:

Try to be friends with your kids and try to create the bond between you and your children that they feel comfortable and can share all their problems with you. 
 Share your thoughts and experiences with them this will motivate them to share their thoughts and ideas with you. This will create a sweet and healthy bond between you. 


Show your love :

Show your love and affection to your children this will increase their confidence in you and your kids will start loving you more. 
Love is the only thing that have power to conquer the world. So you can win hearts of your teens with your love. So try to make your kids feel special by showing your love and care. 


Do activities together:

Try to do some simple chores and activities together. This will make them learn new things and building confidence in them. Doing things together create a good relationship and sense of friendship. 
So I recommend you to involve your kids with you in doing some simple tasks. 

Don’t put pressure on your kid:

Try to make your kids happy and don't pressurize them. Multi-tasking is not easy and it can frustrate your teen. 
Let them learn and study in their own ways, it will make them independent and help to build a good learning behavior. 


Summing up:


I can understand that dealing with the teen is not easy. It is really a sensitive matter and whole life of your kid is dependent on this period of their life. If you will succeed to make positive progress in your kids during this age you will be successful in upbringing a bright and successful person.
