Teenager, is a delicate and sensitive age for both child and parents. You have to be friends with them, but a teacher and a parent as well. You have to play and learn with them, but also have to set rules for them.
The teens can be sometimes vulnerable and sometimes over powering towards you, when it comes to their sensitive things or the things, they priorities over anything. It becomes harder for parents to convince them what is good for them and what is not, because they belief that they are right and parents don’t know about anything in their life, they are not up-to-date regarding anything of today, especially their favorites games, characters and movies.
Negotiating and convincing teenagers is a big task for parents, because parents need to take few measures or rules, so they can get the result of their desires and teenagers on other side beliefs that our parents do listen to us and likes what we like.
Here I am going to share my FOUR GOLDEN RULES:
1. Stay composed and calm.
2. Listen to their complete demand, argument or suggestion.
3. Purpose what you opinion is, but in a very firm manner.
4. Choose the middle thing, that doesn’t forgo home rules or traditions.
I have been trying these with my teenage boys many times. Hope you will try, this works for your, do share with me how you fix your negotiating issues.
