3๏ธโฃ. ๐๐ ๐ซ๐๐ ๐จ๐ง ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ. Parents and sons agree on age-appropriate consequences that will go into effect if the rules are broken. For example, a consequence might be loss of car privileges or an earlier curfew. โฃ

โฃ
5๏ธโฃ. ๐๐ฏ๐จ๐ข๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ก๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ. This is never the best approach for dealing with your teenagers, boy or girl. In fact, punishment can make things worse. Teenage boys may feel rejected and resentful. Hence, they may withdraw further from their parents.โฃ
