Momentum. What to do when you feel like things are going backwards.

When you have had success with your teen it's natural to want to see that continue.

When they open up to you...

When they speak nicely to their sibling...

When they put their phone on charge outside of their room without argument...

You want them to do it again.

But...

When your teen’s bedroom floor is nowhere to be seen…

When simple requests are met with grunts or moods…

And when getting them to sleep before 11pm is a battle,

It's normal to worry that things are going backwards.

All of that hard work to teach your child to tidy up, do chores and go to sleep on their own…

Can feel like it’s lost in the teen years.

Whether it’s struggles with getting them to share their day…

Or struggles to get them out of the house and at school to have day to share…

The teen years can feel discouraging at times.

In the video above I explain what parents can do during these discouraging times to get things back on track.
