    The Chore Strategy That Got My Teen to Help Around the House (Without Having to Nag!)

    If you’ve asked your teen to do a chore and they responded like you just requested a kidney… welcome. 🫠 Because here’s the thing: the chore battle usually isn’t about the chore. It’s about what happens after you ask—the stalling, the eye rolls, the “in a minute,” the sudden deep commitment to scrolling, and you repeating yourself until your voice hits a pitch only dogs can hear. In this episode of Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam, Dr. Cam breaks down the real reason chores blow up in so many homes—and why most of the common fixes (punishment, consequences, rewards, bribing, threatening, lecturing) often backfire long-term. You’ll learn the simple shift that can turn chores from a power struggle into cooperation—without begging, nagging, or doing it all yourself—plus the one mistake that accidentally teaches teens to avoid chores (and you) even more. If chores have become the hill your household dies on… this episode will change how you look at it—and what you do next. This is Part 2 of the series: 7 Behaviors Parents Often Punish That Are Actually Signs of Healthy Development. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why “clean your room” can feel impossible to a teen brain (even when they want to do it) The hidden reason punishment makes chore resistance worse over time The mindset shift that gets teens to help without the constant reminders How to build responsibility in a way that doesn’t destroy your relationship 🎧❤️ ENJOYING THE SHOW?

    That “Nasty Attitude”: Why Punishing Your Teen's Tone Is Backfiring (And What Actually Works)

    Eye rolls. Heavy sighs. That sharp, snarky tone that flips your nervous system in half a second. If your teen’s “nasty attitude” instantly makes you think disrespect, defiance, or this needs to stop now, this episode will change how you see everything. In Episode #269 of Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam, I kick off a brand-new series unpacking teen behaviors parents punish — even though they’re often signs of healthy development. And we’re starting with the one that triggers parents the fastest: attitude. Here’s the uncomfortable truth most parents were never told: What feels like disrespect in the moment is often your teen’s nervous system in overload, paired with a brain that’s wired for emotion but still learning regulation. When we shut it down with consequences or lectures, we don’t teach respect — we teach defense. And that’s where the power struggles, shutdowns, and distance begin. In this episode, I don’t just explain why this happens, I walk you through the critical choice every parent faces in those heated moments… and how one response builds walls while the other builds trust. I also introduce the response framework I teach parents inside my COLLABORATE Method™ Parenting Program — the approach that helps you hold boundaries without escalating, shutting down, or saying something you regret five minutes later. If you’ve ever wondered: Why does my teen get snarky over the smallest things? Am I accidentally making the attitude worse? How do I stop the tone without starting a war? This episode is your wake-up call. Because tonight’s “attitude” isn’t just about tonight. It’s shaping how safe your teen feels communicating with you tomorrow. WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why teen “attitude” often usually has nothing to do with disrespect — and everything to do with brain development The hidden reason even well-intended questions can trigger snark and shutdown The parenting response that escalates attitude (most parents default to it without realizing) The moment-by-moment choice that determines whether your teen opens up… or closes off  WHY THIS MATTERS MORE THAN YOU THINK Every time your teen gets mouthy, snappy, or sarcastic, one of two things happens. You either: reinforce fear, control, and emotional shutdown or teach regulation, communication, and real respect Most parents were taught the first path. In this episode, I show you the second and explain why it works even when your teen is not at their best.   🔑 WANT A STEP-BY-STEP PLAN FOR THESE MOMENTS? This episode gives you the why. The COLLABORATE Method™ Parenting Program gives you the how — across every teen challenge, not just attitude. Inside the program, parents learn how to: Stay calm and grounded when emotions run high Respond instead of react — even in triggering moments Hold boundaries without power struggles Build respect that actually lasts If you’re done guessing what to say and want a clear, repeatable system you can trust in real life, this is where to start. 👉 Learn more here: https://askdrcam.com/collaboratemethod UPCOMING EPISODE Next up in this series: Why “Not Doing Chores” Is Rarely About Laziness (and how nagging accidentally trains teens to avoid responsibility) ABOUT THE SHOW Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam is your go-to podcast for understanding teen behavior and responding in ways that build connection not conflict.

    Is Your Teen Confiding in AI Instead of You? The Truth About Teens Using ChatGPT

    Generative AI like ChatGPT is now woven into nearly every part of teen life, and many parents feel unsettled by how fast it all happened. Are teens using AI tools like ChatGPT or Google Gemini to learn, to cheat, or something in between? Are they turning to AI for emotional support?

    Why Your Teen Can’t Sleep: Ayurvedic Secrets to Fix Late Nights and Morning Struggles

    Struggling with your teen’s late nights, groggy mornings, and endless battles over bedtime? You’re not alone—and you’re not imagining it. In this powerful episode of Parenting Teens with Dr. Cam, certified Ayurvedic practitioner Nidhi Pandya breaks down why traditional sleep rules fail with teenagers and reveals a compassionate, science-backed approach that finally works. She explains how teen circadian rhythms shift during adolescence, why the 11 PM–2 AM “power hours” matter more than total sleep, and how stress—not screens—is the real culprit behind poor sleep. Nidhi shares practical tools rooted in ancient Ayurvedic wisdom and modern neurobiology, giving parents simple ways to reduce resistance, build connection, and help their teens naturally reset their sleep schedule—without nagging, yelling, or forcing bedtime.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE Why your teen's late nights are biological—not behavioral—and how to work with their changing circadian rhythm instead of fighting it The real reason screens aren’t the biggest sleep disruptor for teens (and what is sabotaging their rest instead) How to create calming evening rituals that reduce stress, strengthen connection, and help your teen unwind naturally The counterintuitive morning strategy that builds responsibility—and why parents must stop being the household alarm clock   🎧❤️ ENJOYING THE SHOW?

    If homework has turned into an exhausting nightly standoff, this episode is for you.
