How can teenagers help contribute to the unity and harmony of their parents' relationship?

Answer 1

As the mother of three teen-aged daughters myself, I can tell you that the best way to help your parents' relationship is to remain without problems yourself as far as premarital sex, drugs, alcohol, etc...

Do well in school and try to limit irrational or moody behavior. Dress appropriately and listen to music other than the degrading and depressing stuff that is available now. Have nice friends who support you and who are on the "right track" as far as education and principles.

I think it's great that you understand that parents need a break from the emotional issues regarding their teenagers.

Answer 2

First, that is the problem parents need to realize that their relationship is sacred. Unity is the job of the parents. "What God put together let no man put asunder". I'm not trying to allude to any religious creed but, the words are truly important to remember in a case like this. Parents need to be on the same page when raising children. No means "no", Yes means "yes". If a teenager chooses a poor path in life both parents need to unite to rectify the situation. No choice a teenager makes in life should ever break up two parents, for example: drugs, sex and/or alcohol. The problems that I see are when one parent takes it personally and believes the outcome of their child's poor decision making was solely their fault. They in turn become enablers and the problems start from there. Two parents have been divided, that is why you should discuss these things openly and it they are never too early to discuss. If you are ready to have intercourse you should be ready to converse openly about the "what ifs" in life.

The only thing that teenagers can do to keep unity and harmony in their parents relationship is to make every attempt not to make them choose sides.

Man thats a tough one. You would think the parents would be the adults in the family to begin with ,not a situation a teen is normally able to deal with.After all, teens are still figuring out who they are, and how to deal with there own social problems. But it is sometimes the thing that will snap two adults into realizing the importance of their relationship, that being there is also others that need to be considered here. Maybe they need to here this from their teen. It may be somwthing overlooked . As a teen, i know it's hard to be heard by adults, because what do teens know about anything, right? lol But from the heart feelings about what is going on ,and how it effects the teen, may be the one thing that opens there eyes to how selfish they are being when in disagreement with each other. anyways good luck hope this helps


wow the answer before mine sounds like mine....lol we think alike ....lol

Answer 4

This is really tough. Teens have their own issues and, quite frankly, they're not responsible for their parents emotional well-being. Mom and Dad have to deal with their issues. If you are a concerned teen, I strongly urge yo to talk your parents into going to marriage counseling. Perhaps even family counseling. If Mom and Dad are having problems they need help...but not from the kids, from professionals. I'm not knocking the kids, its just that there are professionals who specialize in dealing with couples who are having troubles. You go to a plumber to fix the plumbing so go to a therapist to fix a leaky marriage.
