Issues of Parenting

The teen years bring a new chaos to the family

Something seems different. You’re not sure what has changed, but that care-free kid you raised isn’t so pleasant anymore. Mood swings, sarcasm, even down-right disrespect seem like the new normal.

Honestly, it’s easier to avoid all of it. It’s not how you envisioned parenting. It’s not your ideal.

But you’re at a loss. You’ve tried the discipline, the arguing, and flat-out yelling. You’ve lost your temper more times than you can count! Maybe this is all normal? Maybe it’s supposed to be this way? Even so, it’s miserable.

Is it possible to raise kids that you enjoy?
