Teenage Rebellion |
||

This is How It Goes!
Teenage has become synonymous with the word rebellion. As soon as a person hears the word rebellion one immediately paints a picture of sulks and tantrums and unreasonable behavior. Instead of taking it at face value we need to delve into the reasons behind it. What makes a normal reasonable individual to act in such an unpredictable way. We need to better understand adolescent developmental stages to help us not take teenage behavior as a personal attack on us. By becoming familiar with these stages, we will increase our competence in encouraging teens to establish their sense of identity.
The trick is to form a strong bond with a teen so that he/she feels close enough to reveal all the problems and confusions to his/her parents. Rules without relationship give birth to Rebellion. |
