How to Understand That Your Teenager Is Treating You Badly: 5 Signs - Don't Ignore Them

28.09.2024 02:30

As adolescence approaches, many children's behavior changes.

They begin to demonstrate obstinacy, a desire for independence and self-expression.

Unfortunately, during this difficult period, the teenager’s attitude towards his mother and father may change for the worse.

However, if parents pay attention to the negative signs and take timely measures (sincerely talk to the child, remind him of their love and desire to support at any moment), then the problem will be solved.

So, what behavioral characteristics indicate that a teenager has begun to almost hate his mom and dad?

Devaluation

If a child constantly devalues the efforts of his parents (for example, accuses them of not earning enough), then this is a bad sign.

There is nothing good in inappropriate irony towards mother and father.

Aggression

It’s even worse if a teenager is openly rude and impolite to his parents.

Unwillingness to communicate

A child who has begun to treat his parents worse may behave calmly, not shout, and also not devalue his mother and father or conflict with them.

However, a bad attitude can manifest itself in the form of isolation, constant silence and unwillingness to answer questions.

Unwillingness to obey

Another bad sign is when a teenager ignores his parents’ demands.

A child may even “do everything the other way around” in order to anger his mother and father.

The appearance of adult friends

It is desirable that a teenager's friends be only his or her own age.

The appearance of adults among a boy's or girl's friends is a negative sign. Do not ignore it under any circumstances!
