Parenting a
teen is perhaps the most humungous task parents ever encounter while growing
their children. Often parents are clueless about how to handle the always new
and unique instances with their teens. Parenting teens blogs have often been an
effective way of both expressing one’s experience and also seeking advice from
fellow struggling parents. The blogs tend to cover a lot of perspectives such
as the physical, emotional, hormonal and psychological turmoil that the teen
goes through, the sudden need for him/her to take decisions related to their
life, the change in lifestyle, the new found freedom, the access and exposure
to all kinds of information, managing peer pressure, and how the parent and
teen must strive to handle these situations together as a team. Parents world
over now realize that they are not the only parents going through the task of
trying to reason with their teens. The parenting teens blogs have managed to
soothe the helpless feeling of such parents, they have also managed to bring
the virtual community of parents of teens together through this medium.
