Unfortunately, high schools don’t prepare our teens for the real demands of adulthood, including self-regulation, personal growth and life management skills. When young men don’t know how to handle the parts of life that are unfair, uncomfortable and uncertain, they act out their frustration with inappropriate, immature behaviors. In this podcast, Dr. Mark talks about the need for young men to become the CEO - “Chief Energy Officer” - of their lives so that they can successfully navigate the challenges that life will continually throw at them.

Teen brains are fascinated by the charm they experience from the constant participation and instant gratification that electronic devices offer. If your son is becoming overly reliant on his devices, it’s preventing him from tapping into his natural teen instinct to confidently experience what it takes to become more physically, emotionally, and financially independent. Parents need to have a way, or method, to help everyone in the home successfully transition from the past ways of caring and cooperating with each other to the new ways of being together.

Revealing to young men what their own true virtues are, makes them have more respect for themselves because they realize that they were born with specific skills and genuine wisdom. Having this new-found self-respect makes it more likely that they’ll be willing to behave according to the virtues their parents want them to learn, like responsibility, cooperation, and honesty. Moral: If you make a deal with young men that will help them discover their authentic qualities, they’ll step up and develop the qualities they’ll need in order to launch into the adult world successfully.

Description: https://www.ChallengingTeenageSons.com Behavior problems that parents experience with their tween and teen sons often happen because the parents have made no formal announcement that they expect their sons to become more responsible for their own well-being. This podcast highlights the need for rite of passage events for both teens and, separately, for their parents. This life-changing event acts as a signal that the role of the parents is going to change from provider, to educator - in the form of a mentor. Because our culture does not promote rite of passages, Mark reveals how parents can initiate their son, and themselves, into new roles in the family dynamic.
