If any attempt to start a conversation with a teenager ends in conflict or indifference on his part, then parents should think about changing their approach.
It is still important to have a dialogue with a child at any age so that he hears, listens and can also freely share his thoughts and experiences.
First of all, moms and dads need to stop pressuring with their authority and experience.
Any conversation should be calm, without constant references to mistakes or orders.
It is necessary to understand that a teenager has his own opinion, his own feelings, his own secrets.
Therefore, it is important to respect them, as well as the personal space of a son or daughter. Before entering his or her room, you should knock, do not interrupt him or her when he or she is trying to tell you something.
It is important to listen and hear him.
It won't hurt to share your own experiences and news, but at the same time you shouldn't shift responsibility to your son or daughter. Parents' frankness can make you want to share the answer.
Experts recommend insisting on transparency when it comes to a child's safety or health.
In addition, psychologists note that it is necessary to ask a teenager for advice. At the same time, it is necessary to thank him more often, but not only for words, but also for help in everyday matters.
Earlier we talked about the dangers of excessive parental care.
