Tip Tuesday
Expect alterations as your teen "tries on" independence.
During the high school years, teens go through many changes as they develop their own system of values, beliefs and priorities. They may change their friends or interests. They may also start questioning how you vote, your religious beliefs or your choice of friends. Don't let this "trying on" of new attitudes try your patience. Stay as calm as possible, and look for opportunities to discuss your values with your teen.
