Development

PART 1
There have been countless books and television series about life with teenagers, however, parents.
It seems they have not figured out how to get their children to pick up their clothes from the floor
of the room, or even to clean their room from time to time. It may be difficult to accept, but a new
approach to dealing with rude or difficult teens is for parents to look at their own behavior.

The key to getting teens to respect you is to respect them first, "says Penny Palmano, who has
written a bestseller about teens." You can not continue treating children the same way "that you've
been treating them for the past 12 Years: 1. For example, they may have difficulty making the right
decision between watching television,

Call a friend or finish your homework. They have opinions that count.

You would be very upset you would never say that to an adult, because it shows a total lack of
respect. "

Palmano, who has a daughter, 19 and a 16-year-old stepdaughter, has even allowed children to
celebrate several teen parties at home. They passed without problems. "I have he discovered that
if he has raised them to do the right thing, and then he trusts that they do, they will generally behave
well, "he says. I make them sandwiches and I leave them alone. "But I make it clear that they have
to clear up any mess 2- I have never had a problem, in fact, the kitchen was sometimes cleaner
than I had left it

She agreed that teens can be irritating: enjoy a job free of responsibility, but desperate for
independence. She does not think, however, that they are trying to bother you. Until recently,
scientists assumed that the brain just grew at the age of 13 and that the problems of adolescence
are the result of increased hormones and the desire for independence, 3- But it turns out that the
region of the brain that It controls the judgment and the emotions are not fully mature until the
early twenties.

"This would explain why many teenagers can not make good decisions, control their emotions,
prioritize or concentrate on several different things at the same time." 4- It means they do not
intentionally do the wrong thing just to annoy their parents, "says Palmano.

The key to happiness for all, Palmano believes, is calm negotiation and compromise. If you want
your children to be at home by 11 p.m., explain why, but listen to your counterparts arguments. If
it is a Saturday, you may consider agreeing to midnight (instead of 1 a.m., which is what you had in
mind). 5- If you arrive up to 20 minutes late, do not react with anger.

Instead, ask if they have had a problem with the public transporting and letting it pass; They have
almost achieved what you asked for.

She argues a little perspective on other things, too. "There were times when my

My daughter's room has not been as orderly as I expected, but as she once said, I am a teenager.
I've never had a problem; in fact, the kitchen was sometimes cleaner than he had left it.

What are you waiting for? 6 H. imagine if you spent two hours preparing to go out at night and
someone said, you will not go like that, right?

"It is vital to choose battles carefully: do not criticize teenagers for having a messy room, then,
suddenly, criticize them for other things.7- On these occasions, parents tend to mention all the
other things they can or do not have badly done. One minute, it's a messy room and the next,
you're saying, 'and another thing. And criticizing them for everything. "

PART 2. Relationships.

 HEADLLINE: tell what the writing is about

Writing deals with the very common problem of adolescents when our children turn 13. In this
article, we suggest appropriate recommendations for parents.

 SUBTITLE: Support your writing

These recommendations are very specific when reflecting as parents since the author with adequate
vocabulary teaches us a good enough reasonable emotional behavior and hard work to reconcile
and not be arbitrary with our adolescent children and improve in decision making in this regard
giving us the key to happiness.

 BYLINE: Tell who writes the writing. (Written by Palmado, for example)

The article by the author of palmado, who according to the narration refers to her repeatedly giving
us to understand that she is a woman.

 LEAD: Say the most important facts (a paragraph of 50 words, at least).

In reading suggests tic parents about behaviors indicated not to be so critical of their children and
on the contrary have the key to happiness and achieve harmony, love and peace with their
adolescents. They will be willing not to answer rude and not be in the position of rebellion, if not in
a conciliatory tone, allowing them to discuss, for example, calm topics for example; the time of
arrival of a party, the organization of your room, pick up socks and shoes etc. This

 BODY: Contains more information and details (a 50 paragraph, at least).

This reading in turn allows the reader to correct some details in a personal way in his character and
not to be rude, both of the father and the child, since it is a two-way road, that is to say it is
reciprocal, it is received and Love is also given since the immediate future will receive good
treatment from each other. We should not expect these changes of behavior suddenly to happen
overnight, drastically if not hard to work because there were moments that we neglected and did
not pay attention to them to express their nonconformity and way of thinking about their behavior
and their repetitive rebellion.

 CONCLUSION: A summary idea about everything he wrote.

 With this letter we can reflect on how to talk, discuss and mediate with our adolescents so
that a final negotiation where the winners are happiness, harmony the key to success.

 Parents are not always right, we must, as parents know how to listen to our children, listen
to their concerns, manifestation and rebellion, this is the way to go with less risk of being
intolerant and irresponsible with our children.

 Palmado with this article, gives us a tool that becomes a manual of coexistence between
parents and adolescent children, where we find some guidelines for good emotional
management identifying some of the possible causes of rebellion of our rebellious son,
differentiating moments where our logic is not the same as that, and perhaps we agree with
what they want to be expressive to the world.
