Teenagers and Peer Pressure

 

If you feel your teen is in trouble, using illegal substances or engaging in illegal activities, seek help at once. Talk with a therapist, have your teen begin counseling, find an adult your teen trusts and talk with some of the other parents. Sometimes we must, as parents, make decisions our teens do not agree with. Sometimes we must place boundaries and end relationships that will cause problems. Remember that you are the parent and that even when you feel that you have no influence over your teen, research continually shows that teens still want their parents’ love and approval.
