All About Parenting Teenagers

Mine is 11 years old.. I consider him a teen or rather tween already. i call that the transition period
slmkhoo:
There isn't any magic to the no. 13. \"Teenager\" is just a shorthand for that period of life when kids start to want more independence, but are still growing into adulthood and need guidance. Girls often get to that stage around 11-12yo as they tend to mature earlier. Some people call the 11-12yo the \"tweens\", but the issues faced are about the same.

It's easy to forget that we shouldn't treat our teenagers like children. -
:roll: Trust is a two way street. If we maintain a good level of trust with our teen, they'll feel comfortable having conversations with us.

Anyone has a good recommendation for my Sec 2 boy in Counseling ? School Counselling is not working on him & the school said it’ll be good if we can find one on our own. I don’t know who to approach. Thank! Hope to get a reply from you all .

what did your boy do? -
Just curious…My DD2 is very sticky to me.
She is 11 and in the preteen stage now.Will this stickiness wear off as the years go by? -
FishFingers:
It should. If it doesn't, it isn't healthy. But she is probably feeling insecure with too many changes happening in her life. When she has settled into her new school, made new friends, developed more outside interests and activities, and life is more stable, she should outgrow the stickiness. Some kids take longer to adjust than others, as you can see from your 2 girls.Just curious...My DD2 is very sticky to me.

girls will always want to stick to their mummy
but mine stopped when she was mugging for PSLE. somehow, that maturity just kicks in with the goal of getting into a better sec school. so don't worry, one day your daughter will grow out of it. -
Thank you for all these information. As a young mom, these will definitely come in handy in the future.
