Proper education of a teenager in the family
Moral Education of Adolescents in the
- Family A teenager can and should be managed. Parents should not play democracy with children, but a rigid dictatorship will also be superfluous. Choose the path of the dialogue. This way you can keep the situation under control.
- Always try to find out with whom your child communicates, what problems he worries, what music he likes to listen to, what films he likes, and what sites he is interested in on the Internet. Also, look sometimes at the page in the social network of the child, she will tell you much more than the child himself.
- Do not rush to give a sharply negative assessment of the tastes of a teenager, otherwise he will close in himself, and it will be difficult for you to reconnect with him. Youth tastes change quickly, and if you pretend that it does not shock you, then the teenager himself will quickly step away from it.
- With a teenager, one must constantly and much talk, so that he does not feel lost and alone in this world.
- The teenager is characterized by sharp mood swings, because your child is experiencing a hormonal shake. You will need maximum indulgence and understanding.
- You can not forgive only outright rudeness. Be attentive to his behavior. Do not close your eyes to the fact that the school uses drugs, assuring yourself that the son - a drug addict or daughter - a drug addict is only among others.
- Monitor your speech in the presence of a teenager. You are adults, with established views, and what you said "in your hearts" without thinking can postpone a huge imprint in the soul of a teenager and have serious consequences.
- Do not gossip, do not gloat and do not complain about life. Do not burden the teenager's fragile shoulders with the problems of intra-family relations. Some parents( especially single mothers) like to cause pity, inciting a teenager to their side. This can not be done categorically. A mother in the eyes of a teenager should look strong morally, self-confident and loving life.
- Do not forget that a large percentage of suicides occur precisely at adolescence, and this is often facilitated by the unstable situation in the family, depression and confusion. Be optimistic, and your child will understand that reality is not so terrible, that any problems are solved when there are loving and understanding parents nearby.
