Are you waiting for your teenager to take action and change? How has that processed work out so far? I am going to be honest and tell you it won’t happen because they are waiting for you to show them the way! How long have you been struggling and praying that they make better choices? When is enough...enough? Fighting, arguing, defiance, rebellion, entitlement, unmotivated, slacking, disrespect, abusive, out of control....please stop me! 🤮 Unfortunately if you are parenting a teenager with any of these symptoms you probably believe you have tried everything including taking all their shit away and let me guess. Nothing has worked. Because that is not the right action. It is just creating more of the same. And no you can’t send them to a boarding school or get them committed to a psychiatric unit because you can’t figure out how to change them. That is not the right action either. This is just a waste of time and energy. You are looking for an easy button. The clock is ticking and your window is closing before you lose them forever and you have on your hands a 40 year old child that you are supporting. Well the secret to what works is the action you take that you haven’t tried before. Why...because you don’t believe you need to change..why? Ego?That is the mindset that has you stuck. To influence change in your children the parent must be the first to take action. It is hard, it is a lot of work, it is getting honest with your own shit and most parents are afraid of the truth. So if you are tired of all the drama be the one to take action to influence change in your teenager by being honest with yourself.
