Hi, I don’t know if I am a bad parent but my child is not listening to me at all. It seems to me like my children always behave in opposite way. Help me to figure this out!

Hi, you can not expect a teenager to act wisely and behave well. Think of yourself when you were at that age. Did you do what your parents wanted you to? Certainly not. You have done what you thought was the best. I know that you can’t figure out where is your mistake because you are not of their age, thinking as they are. Try to change your approach completely. Perhaps, you are pushing them too much and expecting them to be perfect. Don’t ask for some special thing, rather require them to provide small steps and finally reach major goal.
