Managing difficult behavior in teens

[NMWriterofWords]

Where in here does it have teenagers taking responsibility for their actions rather than blaming the adults for everything?

2:18 am wating for my difficult teenager to come home, she saId by 10pm.

2 days ago was the same

She calls me bitch
And hits me
And have a horrible vocabulary

Now ACS is involve and she is more powerful

Therapy doesn’t work

Calling the cops doesn’t work she disrespect them

Here I’m not sloping at 2:18 am hoping she’s save

This is so hard sad 😞 Please don’t blame the parents all the time

I said ...I’m sorry...you were right...I’m sorry. It worked...giving her space and letting her cool down.

Another thing out of our control: societal pandering. Schools and programs bending over backwards to help lazy teens. How about befriending teens whose parents are absent either physically or otherwise. How about being the only parent to stand for what is good and right, with no one to back me up. I've taken my daughter's phone away so many times. I've made so many deals. it's battle after battle. Deal after deal. Now my teen (who's smart) wants to drop out of school and take GED and be a cosmetologist. So if she doesn't do regular school, guess what? phone removal and an onslaught of hate and accusations from her. What can we revoke to control the mouth? I guess everything.

Yup, short and to the point. Open door policy. Show them respect.

Clearly this guy doesn’t have teenagers. Nothing useful here at all.

Teens are not born teens, parent's are the focal point of teen behaviors.
We have an ongoing problem. The government restricts discipline, therefore, children gr8w up with no sense of moral values in life, they are more likely to turn t8 social media for guidance, parents who care, are those who omit the behaviors of self.
Most parents spend time competing against it's own neighbors, family members, half 8f them go to church but come out with the concept that they are above the rest, if everyone in society was perfect society would be like the Stepford Wives, a cloned neighborhood of people walking around like zombies, and the majority of individuals in this society today are living in denial. We've got to pinpoint the source of this misinformation, stop lying to children about their ancestors, otherwise, teens will soon be the very images of the adults who've raised them, bad attitudes, behaviors and all. It destroys humanity from its very core, and there has never been in history where human beings as animals, who walk and talk, become the destroyers of human animals worldwide ever

Disciplining us teens isn't always the answer, why parent feel that we need discipline for everything? We need love and attention sometimes not being locked in a room of sadness:'(
