How to Survive Your Teen’s Rebellious Phase
Teenage rebellion can cause family stress and disruption. Your child, rapidly becoming an adult, is discovering a new sense of independence. Sometimes this new independence results in your child choosing to rebel against you as a source of authority.
This phase is a response by your child to take control of their life and delve deeper into their sense of independence. For parents who have never faced behavioral issues from their children before, this stage can be a surprise.
Transforming Teen Behavior with Positive Communication

As children go through puberty and start building their own unique identities, they begin to develop individualistic traits that may prevent them from interacting with you in the way they used to when they were younger.
