I'm A Parenting Coach – If Your Teen Argues All The Time, Try This 1 Response
Teen arguing back all the time? Try this technique.
If there’s one thing teenagers can become pretty good at, it’s arguing.
For parents, a daily argument (or three) is nothing out of the ordinary. But parenting experts want you to know that you can sidestep the constant arguments with one relatively simple response: don’t argue back.
Parenting coach Alyson Pain explained in a TikTok video: “Even though your teenager thinks they need to argue with you about everything, you don’t need to argue back because it’s not about being right.
“Relationships need room to breathe and grow – and that means modelling room to have different perspectives, to disagree, and not having someone to be right and wrong.”
