Discipline is about teaching, not punishing or controlling your teen. To encourage your teen to behave well, discuss what behavior is acceptable and unacceptable at home, at school and elsewhere. Create fair and appropriate consequences for how your teen behaves. When setting consequences: 1. Avoid ultimatums. Your teen might interpret an ultimatum as a challenge.... 2. Be clear and concise. Rather than telling your teen not to stay out late, set a specific curfew. Keep your rules short and to the point. Make consequences immediate and linked to your teen's choices or actions. 3. Explain your decisions. Your teen might be more likely to comply with a rule when he or she understands its purpose. There might be less to rebel against when your teen knows that a limit is being imposed for his or her safety. 4. Be reasonable. Avoid setting rules your teen can't possibly follow. A chronically messy teen might have trouble immediately maintaining a spotless bedroom. 5. Be flexible. As your teen demonstrates more responsibility, grant him or her more freedom. If your teen shows poor judgment, impose more restrictions.

While we are all stuck at home, we can still plan the perfect staycation with our teens and tweens! Here are 5 Spring Break Staycation Ideas: 1. Have a themed movie night - Choose a movie the whole family will enjoy and go all out with themed snacks, decor and costumes.... 2. Backyard Camping/ Picnic - Set up your tent in the backyard and enjoy camping at home! Do an outdoor scavenger hunt, make smores, grill out and spend the evening around the campfire. 3. Have a Spa Day - Grab some beauty essentials from around the house and pamper yourselves! 4. Set up an at-home wellness retreat - Start the day by making healthy smoothies and breakfast foods. Try sunrise yoga (refer to YouTube videos or app to guide you) while playing soothing music. Read, meditate, nap or just spend time together as a family with no screens! 5. Watch the Sunrise or Sunset - Go for a morning or afternoon walk as family, take pictures or do a time lapse video to capture the beauty of the moment.

The best thing I think parents can do is listen. As an interviewer, listening is just as necessary a skill as asking questions. Don’t just have a list of questions or a list of things to talk to them about. Listen first and then adjust your questions accordingly. Sometimes that’s all they really want to be heard and appreciated. . Check out our new cover story featuring an expert in U.S. politics and host of his own show, Bret Baier. He talks about surviving the crazies...t election in history, the popularity of his show, Fox News Special Report with Bret Baier, getting family time amid the pandemic and how listening is the best advice he can give parents of teenagers. .
