jennypitt Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 I think the best way to discipline disrespectful kids is to do it calmly. Keep your voice calm, and do not allow yourself to become agitated. Don't listen to disrespectful language, calmly walk away. Yelling and fighting, harsh discipline or losing your temper won't achieve anything. You must also treat them with respect. Respect is the key to every healthy relationship. I found this article useful for parents with disrespectful kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sicily510 Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 1. Spend one-on-one time with teenagers. A ride in the car, a special meal at a restaurant, or a friendly discussion late at night are good opportunities for parents to strengthen ties with youth. 2. Express love often. Assurances of love and acceptance are crucial for healthy development. A kindly touch, a hug, or a warm smile are easy ways to express love. Many youth in the survey wished their parents would have expressed their love more often. 3. Spend time together as a family. Family dinnertime, family home evening, and family outings develop feelings of connectedness. Don’t mistake time in the same room as time together. Also, there cannot be “quality time” without “quantity time.” 4. Be liberal with praise and generous with forgiveness. Teens thrive on recognition and acceptance, especially from parents. Focus more on your children’s strengths than their weaknesses, and remember that everyone makes mistakes. A spirit of love, forgiveness, and acceptance are vital in maintaining connectedness as you help children correct poor choices. 5. Develop family traditions. Family traditions connect people in warm and winning ways. Long after youth grow up and leave home, they will recall with nostalgia family vacations, birthday parties, holiday observances, and other special times. I think the more time you spend with your son and build a personal relationship will him will he truly respect you, he'll learn appreciation and values.
