Teenagers talk time

Hey

Mom then teenagers . Wondering what's wrong with me ? Teeheheh! Family prioritisation. Read on.

It happens almost every day, and sometimes many times a day:  Teenagers are always changing.  They will change their clothes.  Their mood.  How they walk, talk or what they’re into.  Some days they just need to figure out what feels right.  Some days nothing feels right.  Being a teenager is hard. 

New stuff

Even pushed–to try new things, to take some risks, to find adventure.  Given enough opportunities for healthy adventure, they will avoid a lot of trouble.

Alone talk time 

Even the quietest ones will open up when given the chance.  Get them alone, in the car or wherever you can, and make it clear that you WANT to hear about their interests, and their lives.  Be patient, and try different times and places until you figure it out.

Chuckle - it's humorous 

This is the good stuff.  Teenagers…are hilarious.  This may be my very favorite thing about these years.  No more knock-knock jokes or bad made-up jokes that never seem to come to a conclusion.  Teenagers actually GET STUFF.   There’s hardly anything like the bond of a good laugh.

Teenagers will make mistakes.  Lots of them.  They’ll act selfish.  They’ll space out.  They’ll get insecure and do stupid things because of it.  They are going to mess up so much you’ll wonder what went wrong.  If you know it’s coming, it won’t throw you off.  

t’s hard to be a teenager.  (remember?)  The world will yell and scream all kinds of negatives to you. So be their mentor their greatest fan.  Be their cheerleader.  Believe in with your heart, and tell them that you do.  Every.  Single.  Day.  

Kbye!
