How to Listen Better To Your Teen

June 21st 2020

Listen, Reflect, Support!

  • Break down their ''issues" in to several steps
  • Listen without judgement
  • Don''t try to solve their problems
  • Support/encourage
  • Problem solving with them
  • Praise good behaviour - be specific!
  • Minimise fuss for bad behaviour
  • Get them to experience consequences of bad behaviour
  • Support them by showing empathy
And remember, your children might not necessary remember everything you told them, 
but they will remember how you made them feel!
