Though we donโ€™t agree with this teenโ€™s approach to getting more privacy, studies show that teens need more privacy and personal space as they get older – and itโ€™s an actual good thing! โฃ
โฃ
Giving your child the privacy to think and explore is an important part of their growing independence. Thatโ€™s because part of growing up is learning to handle new ideas, emotions, and interests with independence and responsibility. ๐Ÿ’ญ โฃ
โฃ
Because the teenage brain is still developing, teens sometimes make quick decisions and donโ€™t always think through the consequences of their behavior. ๐Ÿ‘€ Your child needs you to stay in touch with them, so you can guide and support them. ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ.โฃ

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.โฃ
