Once kids hit the teenage years, parenting becomes
more difficult than ever. Establishing effective house rules is one of the best
ways to educate teenagers. House rules must respect teenagers’ desire to be
independent and make sure they behave responsibly.
How can effective house rules be established?
First of all, get your teenager to take part in making
the rules, which can help keep them motivated to follow them. Ask their opinion
about what sorts of things they think are important when creating the rules and
try to include some of their ideas.
When creating the list of rules, don’t list every
single rule imaginable. Instead, try to limit it to the ten most important
rules. I’ve seen some parents come up with several pages of rules which turn
out to be more like a rule book rather than a list. Remember, it is important
to make the list easy to remember and to be a basic guide.
Then, it is important that you write out the list of
rules and hang them in a prominent (显眼的) location.
Keeping the rules on the refrigerator or displayed somewhere where everyone can
see them is a good reminder. Revise the rules whenever there’s a need, not very
frequently though.
Explain clearly in advance what negative consequences
will be in store when a rule gets broken. But ensure that none of your
consequences are equal to abusive parenting. For example, take off the rule
that says — “if you don’t get home by 11 at night, make arrangements to stay
elsewhere until morning”. Let helping with small household chores like cleaning
up their own rooms serve as consequences for disobeying rules.
Following these tips on establishing
effective house rules accompanied by constant positive reinforcement (执行) will help improve your teenager’s behavior. Hope
you can direct your teenager to become a responsible and independent person
with the help of house rules!
