Affirmations for Parents to Teens
Teenagers require special attention and care. They are just grown-up kids, and usually they are still behaving with a certain influence.
Most of the time, parents are unable to comprehend their child's behavior during teenage years. For them, their world had just begun to take shape.
This is the age when they are learning something very significant for the first time. We as a parent fail to understand this, we expect them to be mature.
They are surely not kids, but are not adults too. Hence this is the critical stage for parents as well.
- I am Listening.
- When your child is trying to have a conversation, give them your ears, attention and soul. They need more of your attention and responses.
- They actually demand you to be their friends, over parents. They expect you to be their partner and demand love.
- When your child was a toddler, you loved them enough, but they were not aware of the love you gave. This is the age when they understand and you need to love them their
way.
- Usually, parental love is not what they demand, they demand a friendly love. They are expecting you to listen to their blabbering, and yet respond to them as if they are
in a serious conversation, as the blabber that you feel is their seriousness.
- Don't try to teach them lessons, teach them through examples, some practical experiences or documentaries.
- Wow! Well Done.
- Even if they have not done quite well, or even if they have not done well in their 100th attempt, appreciate their attempt.
- Appreciate their efforts and sincerity, even if it isn't up to the mark, appreciate them for trying. Then show them what's the right way to it. Motivate
them with kind gestures to try it yet again.
- Be the same even if your child turns out to be the failure at the same task after trying for a couple of more times. Most of the parents compare their teen with
literally anyone.
- You should be more focused on improving your child, not on his speed of improvement. They will not remain back, there is no such concept of lagging or falling behind.
- As a parent, you yourself must be very clear on the aspect called life. You have brought this child up, you owe them this responsibility.
- I am Always There for You.
- Let them know you care. Let them know you love them. Let them know you will protect them.
- When a child commits something wrong, they hide it from you.
- So, it is your topmost responsibility to make your child comfortable with you. Tell them that you are there, and do mean what you say.
- Affirmations for teens by parents is not something that you keep saying, it is something that you should keep proving.
