Though we donโt agree with this teenโs approach to getting more privacy, studies show that teens need more privacy and personal space as they get older โ and itโs an actual good thing! โฃ
โฃ
Giving your child the privacy to think and explore is an important part of their growing independence. Thatโs because part of growing up is learning to handle new ideas, emotions, and interests with independence and responsibility. 
โฃ
โฃ
Because the teenage brain is still developing, teens sometimes make quick decisions and donโt always think through the consequences of their behavior. 
Your child needs you to stay in touch with them, so you can guide and support them. ๐๐ฉ๐ช๐ด ๐ช๐ด ๐ค๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ช๐ต๐ฐ๐ณ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ.โฃ

You should also trust your child to make good decisions, behave appropriately, and decide what information they need or want to share with you and others.โฃ
โฃ
But, ๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐ด๐ต ๐จ๐ฐ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฉ ๐ธ๐ข๐บ๐ด. Your child needs to trust that you respect their right to have privacy and a say in decisions about their life!
