10 things not to do when you become a parent of a teenager
1) Exert your authority over your teenager by asking him/her to do stupid things like turn off their handphones by 11.
2) Get disturbingly angry when he/she does not follow the ridiculous rules that you set because the rules don't make sense.
3) Use profanities on your child.
4) Expect your child to do what you ask them to when you don't even do it yourself.
5) Treat him/her like he/she is 7.
6) Ask rhetorical questions and expect him/her to answer them.
7) Get mad when he/she refuses to answer your asinine question.
8) Confiscate his/her handphone then return it to them 2 hours later.
9) Scoff at his/her apology.
10) Expect him/her to be perfect.
IN SHORT. GIVE HIM/HER SOME SPACE.
