It’s important to start a relationship with your child when they are young and want to connect with you, because adolescence is a time of rebellion. Be someone your child can talk to. Send the message to your child that you love your child and you’re ALWAYS there for them. And remember that you were a teen once too so be understanding, but have high standards for your child.

Teens, remember adults are there for you and if you can’t go to your parent find someone else who can be a support system. There are adults out there who want to listen and help guide you through this confusing period of life.
