A Parent's Guide to Surviving the Teen Years. Listen Respect Kids' Privacy Some parents, understandably, have a very hard time with this one. They may feel that anything their kids do is their business. But to help your teen become a young adult, you'll need to grant some privacy. In other words, your teenager's room, texts, e-mails, and phone calls should be private. Start with trust. Monitor What Kids See and Read TV shows, magazines and books, the Internet — kids have access to tons of information.

Teens shouldn't have unlimited access to TV or the Internet in private — these should be public activities. Make Appropriate Rules Bedtime for a teenager should be age appropriate, just as it was when your child was a baby. Decide what your expectations are, and don't be insulted when your growing child doesn't always want to be with you. Will This Ever Be Over? As kids progress through the teen years, you'll notice a slowing of the highs and lows of adolescence. Reviewed by: Heidi M. EARTH - One video you NEED to see. Orbital - Halcyon On and On.
