Hi, my teenage son doesn’t want to be seen with me and my husband. Why is he ashamed of us? We are quite ordinary people.

Hi, teenagers act strange and you can’t predict their reactions and attitude toward persons and things. Also, they can change their point of view in a short time. My son was also always thinking that I am acting too strange and strict and I was prohibited to enter his birthday parties or his room when friends come. He was afraid that I may say something that wouldn’t be suitable and appropriate. Since, I knew that children in this period are too vulnerable I decided better not to push him to change his mind. He can’t stand any critic and it is very difficult to suggest him that he may be wrong about something.

I was abnormal as a teen according to my friends because I loved being with my mom and really didnt' mind being with my dad but most of the kids I went to school with wouldn't sit with their parents at the movies or walk with them at the store. Most teenagers just feel like their parents are dorky lol. I know I am waiting for the day my boys tell me I embaress them, most preteen/teenagers and some adults do say that at some point.
