What is one disrespectful thing your teen does or says that frustrates you? Leave a comment and let me know.

Even with helpful information, a good family can still have disrespectful children. The internet, social media etc is destroying today generation at a rapid pace..

[Jvgooch]

As a father of six daughters, one being 42 years old, 4 teenagers and one that just turned 12, I have had a variety of issues over a long span of years and of different generations. My teenagers, who have grown up with internet, social media and the Covid 19 pandemic, are a special generation of kids that traditional thinking has gained new meaning. It's as if they don't need or rely on parents when answers to their questions are fingertips away. What used to be the proper way to deal with conflicts or emotional differences with parents, have become rise to stress and frustration. I agree to a point on some of the suggestions you make on this video, but I also think because there is less parenting going on in the world because of single parents, long work hours, lack of time spent with kids and more access to internet activities that content can be fake information that kids become more confused than
ever.

Truth hurts sometimes… and people need called out on negative traits. Delivery matters… yes. But too much candy coating does not make them stronger, nor prepare them for the world.

The older I get the more I realize why the older generation acted and raised like they did. Society is unraveling.

[traceyreynolds]

Telling me that I have no right to expect her to do her chores...or anything for that matter, really frustrates me.

[carolyntravis]

Thank you for this video! Its so important for parents to evaluate their own behavior and disrespect that tends to fuel children's misbehavior. The "traditional ways" of parenting have often left children scarred, perpetuated abuse, and now we have grown adults who don't know how to model humility and kindness for their own children. For those who are willing to lay down their pride and actually contemplate their ways, this videos for you!

[fatimabeltran]

Thank you, but sometimes i want to send him to a boarding school, because no matter what i do his is miserable.

[charlottepeukert]

I think, as a mother, I demand respect no matter what. I'm friendly, but in the end of the day, me and my husband are paying for them. And I don't accept being treated badly, just because my children's brains haven't develooed yet. I think, as part of the older generation, I don't have to engage in too much conflict, I can simply say no.

[leetos.]

I think i have to watch this about 100X more for my step teenage daughter

[ulkqgfb]

I had a 15 years old daughter, now she lied alot and following the wrong group at school

[charlottepeukert]

I did all of this, but it didn't work with one of my children. All this advice is good, but you have to take into consideration that sometimes the situation is unbearable.I'm not even talking about great conflicts here. I experienced a slow, but steady decline of respect, dedication to family life, a chosen way of life I can't relate to and a frustration that there seems to be a total lack of appreciation for me and my husband. Although a lot of time has passed and were're not living together, the emotional distance hasn't really gotten smaller.Whenever there's a meeting that last for more than a day or two, tensions are running high.

[tyrejuan]

Every time my teen is back to calm and normal and I ask if we can discuss something she goes straight back into fight or flight, she is instantly triggered. Meeting doesn't even begin.

[jacquelineclauson]

My daughter is always in her room, she doesn’t spent enough time with her family.

[willkiesel]

Something that really frustrates me is when my teen complains, blames and criticizes other people if he doesn’t win at a game or feels he did not shine. He only says negative comments and it becomes frustrating to show him how to look at things as positive. These conversations start to escalate because I feel I cannot communicate and show him that it is not the way to speak of people

[doreenwong]

Daniel, these are excellent tips! My 8-year old grandson was "eavesdropping" while i was watching your video and he remarked that parents of younger children should listen to the 4 tips, too :)

[LatoyaBenskin]

Great tips ...I am actively seeking to review my approach to my son.

[basmaabdi]

Thankyou so much...concrete and well articulated advice. It's a gradual process, with teens you can just focus on the moment or situation...getting over stressed over how they will turn out or their impulsive behaviours will spoil the current communication. Parents must work on being calm and ready that some things will not be in their control.

[gabireicher]
