Advice: A parent who disciplined their teen for this is hesitant to talk to parent friends about it.
I knew raising teenagers would not be super easy but I had no idea it would be this lonely. I have a couple friends I knew would commiserate and offer support, but mostly we have kept this to ourselves. It feels like all we hear about from parent friends is the highlight reel and ACT scores, and sport achievements and cute girlfriends and maybe, “Oh he overslept for 10 minutes and it was total chaos.
2a. I’m glad you found some parents to talk to. Don’t worry about the others, unless you’re ready to say, “Am I the only one here with discipline headaches? Please say no.” 4. Experts are godsends. Pediatrician, therapist, veteran school counselor. Think credentials and years working with teenagers. The words of someone who has Seen It All are like putting cold toes in a hot tub. That’s where I learned the distinction between disapproving of something and actually stopping it. They’ll find ways, but you can be unequivocal about its being without your permission and against good judgment, and why.6. Show your love. Always. Even when you’re angry and upset.
