as a parent, you realize that your teenager is more and more less important for your teens happiness. That laughter coming from the room made me realize that this time has been challenging and that perhaps all teens need to feel happy is some time with our friends.
Teens are late, get a failing grade, don’t finish their work on time, and continuously lose important things like their bikes. And the craziest thing is: it’s never their fault.
What happened to that cheerful, cozy, playful uncomplicated child? This adolescent transformed into a hormone monster hits with doors and growls, and if you don’t look out, you get something to your head. Adolescent boys don’t control themselves.
Where parents often see a sweet child who has morphed into an incomprehensible bundle of hormones and angst, never clean their room. What we really ought to be seeing is an amazing young adult whose brain is under heavy construction.
