The Three C’s
There are three “C’s” in every teenager’s home: change, conflict, and chaos!
After living with teens and working with their families for three decades, I am well acquainted with each of these “C’s”! But let me say this: one of them is avoidable!
When kids grow, change is necessary. Mom and Dad need to flex in order to keep connecting with and training their kids. Then, in every family there will be conflict. Sometimes it comes because a teen is changing. Sometime it comes simply because we’re human.
But chaos, that’s the “C” that doesn’t have to rule your home. Change is scary. And conflict is even worse. But running from change and conflict will only lead to chaos!
