Why is parenting teenagers so difficult? 

Is it because they are difficult?

No. 

It is because we don't practice the 3Ts

What are the 3 Ts

TRUST
Do you believe your teen? 
Do you trust them to study? 
Do you trust them to do the right things? 

Start now

TRANSPARENCY 

Are you emotionally blackmailing your teen? 
Are you trying to motivate them with rewards? 

Stop now

TEAMWORK 

Are you helping your teen achieve THEIR goals? 
Or are you always saying no and pushing them towards your goals? 

Rethink your role in your child’s life.

It is their life. Guide them and support them.

Be on their team.

Don't obstruct them

Don't distract them.
