Parent - adolescent conflict

Adolescence is a stage characterized by many changes and in all areas, physical, cognitive, emotional, and attitudes. It is the time between childhood and young adulthood, not an easy stage. As a result, it requires that parents are more aware of it and make changes themselves to treat their son or daughter as an adolescent and not as a child.

Maintaining a good relationship with your adolescent will lower the probability of behavior problems, smoking, abuse of alcohol, or getting into fights.
