Remember, Change is the word that rules over this period of the teen’s life. During those years, they are searching for their identity, they are going out from the “Known” which is the security of the home, to the “unknown” which is the outside world, full of risks and dangers.
What makes things more difficult is that during this time they start to shut you out, the communication level drops and they don’t see you as their hero anymore.
Whatever you do, just don’t take the advice of patiently waiting for those years to pass; crossing your fingers that nothing bad will happen.
Teenage years are like waterfall. It’s true that we can’t stop it but we definitely can harness it’s power.
