How to handle teenagers and their problems?*should parents become their friends?* part-3

HELLO!!! in this podcast...Handling teenagers and their problems requires a balanced approach. Parents should create a safe space for open communication, listen actively, and show empathy towards their teens' experiences. Setting clear and consistent boundaries, while allowing for flexibility, helps provide structure. Encouraging independence and supporting their interests fosters growth and confidence. Educating them on important issues and seeking professional help when necessary ensures they receive comprehensive support. While parents should aim to be approachable and friendly, maintaining a clear parental role is crucial to avoid blurring boundaries. Building a relationship based on mutual trust and respect, and being a role model, can help teenagers navigate their challenges while feeling understood and supported.
