Parents of teenagers have to be on guard every day. Not all children experience this period without serious shocks, but pleasant exceptions do happen.

Tips from experts who point out the mistakes of parents will help you understand the reasons for strange behavior.

Experts advise paying attention to the following important nuances in raising teenage children.

Overprotection

There should be care for the child, but overprotection does not lead to anything good.

Wanting to protect their child from troubles and mistakes, parents place him in sterile conditions, leaving which he is forced to adapt to the surrounding world on his own.

Independence

The child must be independent. He must do his homework without being reminded, carry out his parents' orders, but he must not figure out his own problems.

Even if it is his personal business, parents should not leave a teenager alone in a false situation.

The best option is a trusting relationship. Then there will be no secrets or omissions.

Contempt

Adults expect respect from a child, but during adolescence, children persistently want to be independent.

This does not mean that they stop respecting others, it just means that respect must be mutual.

Here it is worth pointing out the habit of adults to devalue the feelings, emotions and problems of teenagers.

Only a balanced approach will help maintain contact with the child and help them survive a difficult period in life.
