Adolescence

Adolescence can be a very trying time for both the adolescent and the parents. But just like a baby bird in the nest,  who needs to learn how to fly and jumps out of the nest, so does your teenager need to take some risks in order to grow and  become independent of you. This is all very normal and necessary.

However, there are some risks that are not good and can lead to all kinds of trouble.

Please check the correct check box next to the statements that apply to your teen's current behavior.
It is noteworthy to realize that all of the following behaviors are cause for parental intervention.


 Low Self Esteem

 Lack of motivation & direction

 Defiance / Disrespect

 Manipulation / Lying / Stealing

 Poor choice of friends

 Anger or temper outbursts

 Academic under-achievement

 Truancy / school suspension

 Drug or alcohol experimentation

 Running away

 Trouble with the law

 Sexual promiscuity



If your child demonstrates one or several of the behaviors listed above, they will continue in their behavior unless there is an intervention. Their behavior will not only affect them in a negative way but it will also affect the entire family

Please contact me for help and advice if you are dealing with any of these issues with your adolescent..
