Coping with aggressive teenager! - 12-Jan-2018

Font Size :

Many think parenting is an easy go job. But it is the hardest of all the profession as it doesnt have any sort of formal training or curriculum. 


Every stage of parenting has its own challenge. 


Coping with teenage aggression may seem to be the toughest phase for any parent.      


Arguments and disagreements are an essential part of the family life. It essentially becomes more when the children are in the adolescent phase. Sometimes these arguments become too hot that it transits to physical aggression.


Make one thing very clear and remember that you are the chief role model to your children.      


However, there are ways in which your behavior can both help and worsen the situation.


If you start shouting, you cannot expect them to stay calm and argue in a reasoned way. Instead, you need to remain calm. If necessary, you might need to remove yourself from the situation for a few minutes until you know that you can be calm.


Your body language also needs to be calm and non-aggressive.


For example, avoid challenging them by staring them in the eye. Keep your voice under control, and avoid shouting.


Make sure that you give them the opportunity to express their point of view, and listen as they do so.


Talk to their school to see if they are also being aggressive there. Some schools may have access to help such as counseling.


Arrange counseling if your teenager agrees that there is a problem, and that they are prepared to seek help, try to find a suitable counselor as quickly as possible. 


Feeling angry is a normal teenage response to the adult world.


If these techniques fail, your teenager becomes physically violent.


If your teenager tries to hit you, leave immediately, making it clear that violence is unacceptable.


DO NOT try to fight back.


Make one thing very clear and remember that you are the chief role model to your children.
