Until now, I have never had a teenager at home to know how to communicate with them, but noticing my acquaintances who have them, I notice that I will have to arm myself with a lot of patience, nepotism, and alcohol...
Probably, like any young person, children will rebel that they are big, that they want more freedom, more bonuses so that they can pay attention to it. An example of this is one of our close families, where their teenage daughter behaves very badly at home, is late for school or runs away, does not study ... and when she asks her parents and father to buy something and says "you have no money, you don't you decide what to buy ". He is right, as long as you cannot complete a simple task by coming to school, not being late, and having a success higher than 2 (the lowest grade in our education), you cannot expect to have any privileges. She threatens them that at the age of 15 she will find a job and run away from home. 20-30 years ago she could have done a job, but today a person who is incomplete, even a minor in her case, to start a 4-hour working day must have the written consent of a parent, and they will not give it. If the monitoring bodies for the work process make an inspection of the place where he works, they will be fined ...
Conversations with teenagers are definitely complicated. I am convinced that they will not hear us, they will do whatever they want and we will be happy when they return home even for two hours. It is up to us to teach them before they reach these years what is good and what is bad. Do not be deceived by other people and have a clear judgment of yourself and others. Even moving into a "bad" company does not mean that you do the same things as them.
From now on I start to stock up on what I can - patience, soft alcohol, and sleep, because I expect that the teenage sleepless nights I will have will be scarier than the baby ones!
