Troubled Teens
Quote From: sprkhomeSaw the show with the family with boy who was alway drunk and in trouble I was impressed with
Dr. Phil's responce I've also seen a show on Dateline with a family who's boy had trets sydrome
and was causing all kinds of problems. I have a teen boy with schzoeffective disorder and is very
high maintanace. One thing stand out with the TV shows and what I also have found.
SOMETIMES parents create their own "monsters" My son may have problems but he has never been allowed to be Disrespectful or swear or be physicaly violent being the nice guy in all things
is not what the child needs or want. I can't count how many times I've responded to the situation in
a manner that was not expected and his response has been ammazing. He want to know there are
bounderies and expations. S Sometimes there are simply teenagers that no matter what the consequence was, continue with the acting out, bad behavior. Maybe you could have elaborated on what your techniques were that got these amazing results? I'm sure a lot of us could use some tips here.
