How do I talk to my teenager?

Talking with Your Teen

Talk to your teen about the good things in your life, and how you are working to make things better. Do not overload your teen with details on all your problems. They will face adult problems soon enough, don't overload their minds with them now. Many parents who have lost control of their kids did so by not spending quality time bonding with their kids and making them feel special. Find time daily to spend talking with your teen and let them know you are there for them and how very special they are. You will help build their self-esteem immensely.
