    The Dreaded Curfew

    There isn't a hard and fast rule around curfews. Every family has to figure out what works for them. The key to setting realistic curfews that both parents and teens can abide by is clear and consistent communication. As teens start to go out independently with friends in the evenings and on weekends, parents can begin to feel like they are losing control. They might not know who their child is spending time with or what they are doing. Remember, it is OKAY to ask your teen questions. They may not like it, but it is important to establish trust with your teen as they transition to young adults. Who they are hanging out with? Where are they going? Will there be a parent or a chaperone at house parties? What are the consequences for not returning at the established time? Your teen may resist answering but they need to understand that building trust around curfews requires open lines of communication and responsible behavior on their end.

    The Defiant Teen

    When your teen starts to push back, and exhibit defiant behavior, it can be a defining moment in your relationship. This behavior is a real challenge for parents and can create real anxiety for the both parent and child. Teen and family expert Ian Hoge shares how the opportunity in defiance is to re-evaulate our parenting styles and discover what areas of strength we bring to our parenting and what areas we need to work in order to deal more mindfully and effectively with our teens.
