Children learn from their mistakes

You already know that children need to be allowed to learn from their own mistakes. While everything seems to be normal. And let's check which of the following solutions you would allow your child to take:

• drive a motorcycle;

• skip school;

• use obscene expressions;

• Try drugs;

• start smoking;

• Have sex before reaching 16 years of age?

What, thoughtful? Of course, the further, the more difficult. Do you really think that you would allow your child all the items on the list? However, if you look at the other side, then how are you going to ban it? Now your opportunities are becoming much more limited. You can yell at him, but this will not have the same impact on him as on the five-year-old. And the teenager himself knows how to yell as good as yours. You can lock it in at home, but any self-respecting teenager will go out the window, or at least pretend to be a good-looking girl, until you finally change your anger to mercy, and then will be more careful not to get caught again. And if you deprive him of pocket money, then he can quite possibly find a way to earn them on his own.

I know of one person whom my father stripped of his inheritance( it was a very rich family) for having shaved nalyso. But even such a measure did not force him to release his hair back. Here it is, the essence of a teenager: if a state expressed in a seven-digit number can not serve as a sufficient motivation for him, then what can?(And in the case described by me, my father died suddenly, before he cooled down, change his attitude to his son and restore the old will, so that the guy really lost his inheritance!)

So, in general, you have no choice. Whatever you do, your teen will behave like a teenager. And, if you are indignant about this and try to somehow influence it, the likelihood that the child's decisions will become more and more unpleasant for you, increases.

WHAT YOU DO NOT DO, YOUR TEENAGER WILL BE A TEENAGER.
