Слайд 7The first story
I'm going to leave home as soon as I'm
old enough, It'd be great if I could get a job and a flat when I leave school, but that's not very likely, so I'm going to apply to a college that's across the other side of the country. I wish I just had one tiny room of my own. My mates always say that I'll miss my family once I leave, but I doubt that!

Слайд 8The second story
I'm treated like an unpaid slave in the house.
I have to do the dishes, help with the ironing... I wouldn't object to this if everyone in the house did their fair share, but my brothers only keep their room clean, and my sister just acts like a baby and does nothing. Mum tells me that she needs the help and I'm the best at doing housework, but that's because I'm the only one who does it !

Слайд 9The third story
Although I'm nearly fifteen, my mum and dad treat
me like a baby. They don't let me out at night during the week and if I want to go to a friend's house at the weekend, they phone up her parents first and arrange what time I've to be home by, Dad always asks me about boys, warning me that I'm not allowed to go out on a real date till I'm at least fifteen - what a joke! He keeps nagging me about homework and studying, and he doesn't believe me when I say I don't have any to do. He just thinks I'm being lazy when I sit watching the TV at night.

Слайд 10“Mommisms” are things your mother said a million times.
“Mommisms”
I would never have talked to my mother like that.
Why? Because I said so, that’s why.
I’m going to give you until the count of three.
‘I don’t know’ is NOT an answer.
If everyone jumped off a cliff, would you do it, too?
I’m not talking just to hear my own voice.
I hope, some day, when you have kids, they’re just like you,
then you’ll know.
Wait till your Father gets home
If you fall out of that tree and break your leg don't come
running to me.
Why do you bother asking me a question and then don't
bother to listen to the answer?
Look into my eyes! You are telling lies.
You’d better not do it again!
“Daddisms”
Come here, boy.
This story reminded me of my childhood......
Stop crying before I give you something to cry about.
“Can't” means “won't try”
My dad would unbuckle his belt and whip me with it before
I could even think of running away.....
Might tempt fate again.......
You start to worry about your parents health.
and...and....and...........
Money doesn’t grow on trees.
What's that you say?
I am fed up.
That’s none of your business.
“Kiddisms”
You never let me stay out late.
You are never there for me.
What have I done now?
I am busy at the moment.
It’s not my fault.
I’ll do it later.
You never let me watch what I want on TV/
I am doing my homework now.
I couldn’t care less.
You don’t understand a thing.
Leave me alone.
That’s really not fair.
Слайд 15Some tips for teens parents
Consultation: Ask what they want.
Negotiate: Find a
win/win solution
Communicating with teens: Keep the lines open
Listen: - More than you talk, find out what is important to them, show you respect their ideas.
Teenage discipline: Have them set their own ground rules
Teenage Problems: Show you trust them to make good decisions, help them weigh the pros and cons
Appreciation: Let them know what you appreciate about them
Be congruent: Model the behavior you want
Let go expectations: Your teenager has to make his own way in the world, Give your perspective, but let him make his own choices
Suspend judgement: Let them make mistakes, Let them be different to you. Don't make your love conditional on good teenage behavior
Responsibility: Give them ownership of a household tasks such as shopping or cooking meals
Love them: Show them, tell them, spend time with them (even listening to their music!)
Слайд 17When your parents ask you to do something, do it. If
it is something you don't want to do, just simply tell your parents it is not something you feel like doing. If they still insist you to handle it, don't yell, just go do it. Even if you don't want to, you have to respect your parents.
Слайд 18Don't talk back. You might think something is unfair, but don't
push them to think you're not mature.
Слайд 19Try and help them out as much as possible. If they
need help doing to dishes or doing laundry, give them a helping hand. They will always try and give back in return.
Слайд 20Try not to make them mad. If your working on getting
something, don't do anything that might make them not want to give it to you. You don't want to ruin everything you worked so hard for.
Слайд 21*Try helping them out around the house by giving them a
helping hand.
*Clean your room and make sure you don't leave your mess for them to have to clean up.
*If you think something is unfair, go on with life and possibly come back at a later time.
*Don't be too good or they will think you're just trying to get something.

Слайд 26Discussion parents
Two kids are talking to each other. One says, "I'm
really worried. My dad works twelve hours a day to give me a nice home and good food. My mom spends the whole day cleaning and cooking for me. I'm worried sick!"
The other kid says, "What have you got to worry about? Sounds to me like you've got it made!"
The first kid says, "What if they try to escape?"
