Handling Your Teenagers - 3

You could teach your teen how to argue, by listening to her quietly, and then, only then, starting on what you have to say. This will teach her a valuable lesson in conducting negotiations later in her life, and she will thank you for it at that time. Talking back is addictive to your child, and when she finds that she has gotten away with it once then she will try it again and again.

Handle it wisely right at the beginning, and make sure that she knows you will not tolerate this behavior. Reinforce it by cutting off her privileges and giving them back to her if she shows an improvement.

With patience and constant effort, it is indeed possible to teach your teen not to argue and talk back at you.

A sure-fire way of inviting problems into your relationship with your teenager is by sending mixed or unclear messages. Clear communication is an absolute must if you want to have a bonding relationship with your teenager.

It helps build a foundation of trust, fosters healthy self-esteem, encourages positive behavior, and helps tone down frustration and stress in the family. While many parents feel it is close to impossible to have a conversation with their teenager, there are ways. Your child really isn't becoming a new special breed of alien. They're just growing up and they still do want to connect with you.

Handling Your Teenagers - 2

While many parents feel it is close to impossible to have a conversation with their teenager, there are ways..."

You feel like it was just yesterday when your teenager begged you to take him out for ice cream, and asked for your help in one of the small precious moments of life.

How and when did all this change, you wonder, where did that little angel go, leaving this rebellious strong-headed obstinate teenager in her place?

I know it is good for her to have her own opinion, but I don't really know if this type of back talk is healthy, or am I doing something wrong? Please help!"

Do these words sound familiar to you, the parent of a teen? I know this is a scene right out of my own home, where my son and I have countless arguments, which almost always end up with one or the other of us walking away in a great huff. If you want to know how to teach your teen not to back talk at you, then read on:

Never forget; it takes two people to argue; your teen cannot argue by herself and with herself. The argument involves both of you equally, and what you can do is state your case ONCE, and then either stand there and hear her out when she argues and finds ways to point out that what you are saying is wrong, or simply walk out of the room quietly.

This will give her the idea that your word is final, and that you will not change it for anything. All her arguing will not affect you. Practice doing this many times, she will eventually get the hang of it.

You must develop the patience and for attitude to let your teen argue with what you have. said, as she will automatically do, no matter what, and not say anything. Some questions like 'Why do I have to do it?" do not actually need an answer; all she is doing is complaining that she has to do it. If you say, "Because I say so," then it will undoubtedly cause an escalation in the already frayed tempers in the room.

Teens do love to argue, and since this will be a common occurrence in your home over the next few years, why don't you take it positively and lay down a set of rules for arguments? For example, you can say that you will not allow name calling, shouting, screaming, and walking out, slamming doors, crying.

Handling Your Teenager - 1

Not only is your child now speaking an entirely new language, he no longer wants you around or even needs you to be around him.

You feel like you have been shunted out of his life unceremoniously; you are no longer his `hero', you are more of a thorn in his side and for no fault of yours. Do not despair, all is not lost! This is a typical teenage behavior, and is a plea for independence, and it is up to you to find ways and means for the bond between your child and you to remain as strong as it ever was.

What do you do? Try this, for example. Start a conversation with something neutral: "How do you like that new movie?" There is no scope for controversy and argument with such an opening, and the trick is to remain positive, even when you feel frustrated and about to lose your temper with your teen.

Don't start off any conversation with your teen on a defensive note: you will only put him on the defensive, and it will get you nowhere.

Even if you do have to address a controversial topic, start off on a positive and neutral note, and get him to start talking before the conversation escalates into an argument and thereafter into an open spat. If you only talk to him negatively, remember, he will not want to talk to you at all. Another important tip that will help you bond with your teen is to remember that he is no longer a child; he is now an independent young man, who can think for himself. Respect his wishes when he says he does not wish to talk now, and also respect his privacy: he will respect you for it at a later time.

Make efforts to learn what your teen enjoys doing at this stage in his life, and try to be more of a friend to him than a parent. Home is haven: Keep your home a safe haven for your teen, where you can renew your bonds with him. Make mealtimes a time for togetherness: this is the place where there is no peer pressure, and your teen will not feel embarrassed to be caught doing things for his mom and dad. Bond with your teenager! Follow these tips and bond better with your teen so that your bond remains as strong and unshakeable as ever as both of you progress through life.

"No matter what I say, she always argues with me. Nothing I say or do seems to be right for her, there is always something to point out and criticize.
