      @@luiserenner7147 Gentle parenting isn’t coddling kids tho it’s treating them like people rather than obedient dogs that aren’t allowed to speak for themselves. I never understood why parents need to have a power trip when raising kids, like I understand you need to establish some authority but you should at least listen and understand your kids. You should know when your kid is bullshiting you and when they are actually struggling.

      ​​@@AlbredaWelde There is such thing as being unequipped to handle interpersonal relationships/emotions well, though. Like, parent or not, there are people who learn and develop strong skills in terms of supporting others emotionally and reflecting on the ins and outs of their relationships to others. And just as someone can be well-equipped in that department before ever having kids, or without having kids at all in the end, so too can someone be completely unequipped in the same area, and decide to have kids.
      Cause at the end of the day, if you're inexperienced dealing well with emotions and relating to other people generally, you're guaranteed to be bad at doing the same with a kid, since a parent-child relationship is like, a baseline interpersonal relationship then with extra challenges heaped on top.

It’s okay to have excuses (which hormones and mental health are both valid excuses) but make sure you own up to it and try to do better. Owning up, apologizing, and doing better is all it takes to be a good person. But you’ve also gotta think, a teenagers brain is very underdeveloped. I may have been mature for my age at 15 but I wasn’t as mature as I am now. I think way differently even tho it’s only a few years difference. Our brains are always growing if we let them, and a teenager who’s experiencing things they haven’t experienced before will probably be a bit of a dick. Idk if that makes sense but I hope it does :)

    As a psych student, the reasons for teenagers sometimes struggling (because it's not always the case- most teens actually don't experience it strongly) is because they are going through one of life's crisis. You get them as a toddler, then teenager, then just as you turn into an adult, then sometimes in your middle age. Teenagers struggle because it's their FIRST TIMES experiencing: serious relationships/friendships, choosing their paths in life and already being pressured to know their priorities and how to sort them really fast, having to balance those new serious relationships while still having school duties and family duties, and on top of that their bodies and minds go through probably the biggest and fastest changes ever. So yes, hormones are one of the reasons making things difficult for teens, but it's also their brain structure changing and them learning what it means to build real connections, raise to everyone's expectations and choose their path asap. Our brains don't fully develop until we're about 30. That's why it's a sensitive time for their brains and a time when it's easier to develop mental health issues.

    • @su-she9225
      @su-she9225 Před 7 měsíci +77

      Also, everyone who shits on gentle parenting under this video clearly doesn't know what it really means. We learn about types of attachment to parents (created by Bowbly) and basically every type of attachment that isn't the safe type is harmful to your child. Gentle parenting should honestly just be called "regular parenting" because it should be the standard. Gentle parenting means that you don't yell at your children every time they do something wrong and that you don't ignore them or give them the silent treatment. But when they mess up, you ask them why it happened and you actually LISTEN to your child and treat them like a person who made a mistake instead of a pet who bit another pet. The results of abusive punishments on children are MASSIVE and parents sometimes don't realise how many things can be considered abuse. Silent treatment will cause your child to suck it up and never tell anyone they are hurting in their adult life, being aggressive towards your child might end up with them being terrified of conflict, mixing both up will make your child unstable and unable to build safe relationships cause they never know if they are safe or being punished etc. The attachment you make with your child will influence their future life and their own attachments to other people.

      Rising up to expectations is what is causing all the stress. Whose expectations do you have to rise up to. Maybe your father has different expectations and your relatives or friends or the society has something else as expectations. Can you please all the people...No ..so focus on your goal and forget about others. Nothing matters more than your emotional health and you and only you are responsible for your mental health. Work on yourself for yourself and do your best. Only doing your best is in your hand. The result depends on your destiny. If result is not good then understand there is something else for you but keep trying to move ahead and grow in life. Don't give up ever. And you will be pleased that you tried

      I am not a parent, yet, but I always believed that kids needed a good scolding sometimes, when they didn't do anything TOO bad, and a good spanking other times, like when they throw a stone on someone, or hit someone in any way, or steal, or something that is really bad, because otherwise a kid won't understand why that is wrong, the kid didn't get hurt, the kid might've been yelled at only, but the kid won't understand what pain is, and why the kid shouldn't hit others, and absolutely never hit a kid on the head and face, maybe the buttocks or the palms.

      My parents, when I was younger, would get angry at me for what I thought was no reason. I'd suck my anger and frustration up and apologise, just so they wouldn't be mad. When they'd ask me what I was apologising for, I'd list off any complaints they had and anything I had done in the past few hours.
      Fortunately, they understand me more now, and communication makes everything so much easier. If they get angry, I leave and then later ask them why. They explain and I can understand their perspective, as well as them understanding mine.
      It might not work for everyone, but punishment without understanding just hurts the child. Just like with any animal, positive reinforcement works best. If they child understands why what they did is wrong and harmful, they are much less likely to do it again.

    Part of a parent's job is to teach their kids to act right despite the hormones. Or find other adults who can. Honestly sometimes I think parents are the worst people for the job. As a teen I thought the hormone thing was complete nonsense and I was naturally bad and lazy person, especially when my parents were around. Whenever they asked me to do things, I had such a strong negative reaction, but I didn't realise how excessive it was, especially as a teenager. Then I left the house and I calmed down a bit, but it would come back fullforce when I visited in my early twenties, I didn't show it anymore, I had more control than that and it was such a ridiculous reaction I didn't want to let it out, but I couldn't seem to stop feeling excessively annoyed if my parents asked me to set the table, even if I intended to set it before they ever asked me. I kept trying to figure out if I had some deep-seated unresolved resentment toward my parents. Then I reached the age where we apparently really stop growing 25 or so, and from one year to the next all that disappeared. Poof, no more. That's when I realised hormones might actually be a thing. It doesn't mean teenagers should get a pass, on the contrary they need to know how to recognise when they are overreacting, but it is important to understand that it's not a lie when they feel things so strongly and aren't exactly sure where it's coming from.

These hormones level out as one ages and the prefrontal cortex doesn’t develop until age 25 so maintaining grace for your child is essential.

    A teenager definitely has sudden anger issues, irritability, emotional ups and downs which can be the result of hormones because their body is changing, but this changes can be channeled in a proper way by putting them in music class, fitness class like pilates and sports class, which will regulate their hormones and make them more than happy...I did that for my teenage daughter and son and though I can see their aggressiveness, they also can be easily calmed down....

Because of this, they decided to be more open-minded and give me more freedom to decide for myself BUT always with proper guidance. This way I would always be aware of the consequences of my actions. My mother was a product of very strict upbringing and she didn't want me to experience the same kind of treatment.

    Instead I gave them choices, asked questions to make them think, and only ever said a hard NO when their choices were a danger to themselves or others. Everything else they got to experience their own mistakes without me telling them I told you so.
    The kids learned to make their beds and clean their rooms when they got tired of losing things in there and I wouldn't help find them, or when they got tired of being embarrassed to have friends over. They're now successfully independent adults and we still talk even though I'm "just" the stepmom and not with their dad anymore.

It makes it so nothing related to me is ever taken seriously.
    Now that I'm nearly an adult and I've seen a psychiatrist, those hormones turned out to be 5 undiagnosed mental disorders that have gotten bad to a horribly extreme level due to being undermined and untreated. Stop with the hormone excuse and just talk to your kid like a normal person, and if they fuck up talk to them about why and how they fucked up.

I wrote a whole ass essay about everything, even made sure to write it in a way that she could understand, but she just basically brushed it off with “you’re a teenager now, that’s why you feel this way”. All the things I said weren’t just mindless teenage blabber, they were things describing the intense anxiety and tiredness I felt, which had affected my life so much. I had already struggled with doubting myself because of everyone saying how teenage hormones affect your life, and that did not help.

    I was a really, really angry teenager, because I was dealing with untreated ADHD, depression and trauma. When I wasn't out drinking, or at home angry, I was crying my eyes out. My mom was at her wits end, because there was no disciplining me, I would just leave home and not text back. There was nothing that she could take from me to make me act better, because I didn't care about my things - because I wasn't being a "bad kid" or a "brat", I was hurting, so fucking deeply, and I didn't know how to let my mother help me. It ended with my mom talking to a children's/teens psychologist and getting the advise that she should just let me go, however much it felt wrong and scary, because only then would I come running back, and after a summer of me ruining myself, I did run back, and finally let my mom help me get professional help, and I never pushed my mom away again. I love my mother more than anything in the world, I would kill anyone who hurt her, and her grace and kindness made me into the kind and calm adult I am today.
    My point is, if she had ever laid a hand upon me, I would've never returned. That, to me, would be a sign that I was so worthless that not even my own mother would care to see why I was fleeing all the time, why I was so angry and changed from how I used to be. That would've destroyed me. Hitting your child is fucking lazy and bad parenting, and when the day comes where your child is hurting, they know that they can't go to you, because they've been taught that you don't care about their emotions, you only care about them performing to their liking - it might not be the case, but that's what they learn. That shit will forever be a stain on your relationship.

      Well if you didn’t come back, it would have been your loss, not your mother’s. While I do agree that parents need to sit down and talk, they do need to discipline you in any way. We come from a family when my parents don’t resist themselves from hitting and I am glad they did it because not only I turned out well but I do understand the significance of respect and fear. And my parents were the only people who were there I wasn’t focused or was sick. Once I was very sick and my mother bathed me every day and I was 20. My father recently gave me a good thrashing because I was fighting with my husband and I am 33, and it changed my attitude. I am so glad my parents hit when they should have, and sat to have a conversation with me when I needed that. And the same goes for my husband and everyone around. We both are in high paying jobs, never did drugs or any other stupid things. And our parents live with us, and I hope they live for a very long time. Whereas in West, they don’t discipline their child to give them freedom…sometimes the kid turns out okay or not, and when parents get old, the child visits them on holidays in a old age home. AND, OUR PARENTS HAVE BEEN GREAT PARENTS and we owe our life to them. They are still when we need emotional, social and financial support. And I would also hurt anybody who try to hurt them.

Not because they had tools to make life easier but because it was possible to be poor and live a good life. Farming doesn't make as much money as it used to because it costs a ton to get into selling crops and if you don't own land you can't live a subsistence lifestyle... and family fortunes run dry if not properly maintained... and when people are poor they justify doing wrong for survival... and that in turn causes people with any amount of stability to live in fear and fear feeds distrust and if you have no trust you lose generosity and when people are no longer generous... the poor get poorer and the rich get richer..

      We- We don't hit people in the real world just because we don't like what they did.
      But that would mean the punishment was instead used for a release of anger for the parent and a way to control the child, in a way that isn't actually used or acceptable in the real world.
      I mean, would you spank an adult or an elder with a belt for any misbehavior? Or would you talk to them about said behavior?
      Why do we hit children and teenagers and not our spouses and parents and grandparents in this way?
      It's only okay when the person you're "teaching a lesson" to, can't exactly do much in retaliation.
      I don't think I have to explain how child psychologists have said time and time again, physical punishment is not a good solution. For every "I turned out fine" there's another person who ends up in a cycle of abuse.

      “Being disrespectful to your kids’ boundaries” can mean a lot of different things. Kids aren’t really in a position to set their own boundaries, generally speaking. I’m certainly not advocating beating the hell out of your kids or anything close to it, but I think that many parents allow their kids to set too many of their own “boundaries”, rather than setting healthy boundaries for them. Of course the relationship between parents and kids often involves varying amounts of negotiation, but kids really do need stability and structure to be imposed upon them, with boundaries enforced by the parents. That is what allows kids to develop discipline and even maintain emotional stability and the ability to self-regulate. Without a significant amount of “tough love”, kids actually become more anxious, and the negative consequences of this lack absolutely Carrie’s over into adulthood.

    I had a big problem with moodswings when I was a teenager. Sometimes something as unimportant as not instantly finding my keys made me cry. It wasn't an excuse, but an explanation. I knew that the emotions I was feeling were unreasonable, and could tell my mom that I felt those emotions and I would have to deal with them before we could continue our discussion. I still had to face the consequences of my actions.

      At the end of the day, they're just asking u to control yourself even when you're feeling bad, because In adulthood if u give reasons like "I'm gonna be cruel to someone today,it's my hormones" u still face the consequences to that... regardless of how sad or mad u are...that's life... they're training u to behave and discipline yourself actually...they don't "hate u"... that's unless they say stuff like "I want u to get married t whoever WE CHOOSE ONLY" then that's a different situation

Adults don't have hormones going wild so that point doesn't really work, unless you're pregnant in which case that would be a valid explanation. Nobody is using it as an excuse for bad behavior like this video claims

      @@honestreflections5541 the word trauma just means something deeply distressing. It has a broad number of uses. Being whipped/spanked/beaten definitely falls under the category of trauma. Me and my brother were raised using very different methods. Seeing him run in fear from a belt, screaming and crying in PAIN after being hit with it. Yeah. That’s traumatic. It’s just so normalised so people think it’s okay. If a child is old enough to understand the concept of fear, and old enough to have the freedom to make decisions with detrimental effects, they’re old enough for constructive conversation. It’s not even biologically or psychologically effective (which it isn’t, its just conditioning using a pain stimuli. What do you do when you feel pain? Knee jerk reaction, you pull away from it. You’re teaching your child to pull away from you because YOU are the cause of their pain - seen this first hand when my brother binged alcoholic because he was beat for underage drinking. Being in his own home, away from the pain stimuli, he could indulge in drinking. He’s better now but that’s besides the point, it required constructive conditioning to teach him that it was a negative thing, because it didn’t occur in his brain that it was negative, when he thought of a negative stimuli, it was always the belt or the spanking or the yelling, etc).

Not addressing a problem until you’ve calmed down is great. But when you aren’t able to take a beat, don’t be afraid to apologize to your kids. If I lost it because let's face it we all do. I would tell my kids I know I flip out sometimes but I will always apologize and try to handle it better next time.

      Teens rebel, but it seems mainly against parents. A great opportunity for other adults to say things in a less emotionally charged way (and without the ability to punish over the teen simply disagreeing), and to encourage good lessons/living, but a lot of older people just sh*t on teens.

But I told him he's smarter than that and he needs to control himself because he's not four, he's heading into adulthood. Also this is a respectful house, it goes both ways. If you want me to respect you, you're going to respect me. So far so good, he's an absolute angel. Every now and then he can get a little short, but you give him the mom eyeball, and then he apologizes and everything is good again. I'm so glad he's not like me. I was in jail when I was his age.
