Observe and guide

idea posted by Kriti Das HR Manager, ANZ Information Technology

If your kids have high goals and aspirations teach them that it is not possible to get everything on the earth. We should do this so that later in life they might not feel dissatisfied with what they have. Higher aspirations look good are actually monstrous and lead to negative effects in adulthood.

Your opinion is correct Mr.Kirti Das. However the advice and guidance needs to be in a friendly manner and they should be made to understand the truth on what is right and wrong.This is because today's children are more faster than the parents in view of more access to visual medias and readings.

Yes, Krithi. At young age you can direct them to " do's & don'ts" . But, when they grow older from teen to adults, their mind tend to grow on their own will and wish. So, at this stage I feel that , right guidance will make them successful & happy. ADULT tend to move perverted at this age.So, it is the skillful guidance that will make him pass over this stage.

hello Kirti,i do feel that parents should be very apt in their deeds before teens as they will normally be rolemodels.some amount of fear induction by parents will also help.teens should always feel that parents are observing everything and parents should create an atmosphere where teens should freely approach for guidence irrespective of matter.

Avoid Repressive tactics

idea posted by Mathew Cherian Research Associate/Analyst, Western Michigan University
A child should be allowed to grow without his or her needing to repress too much like filling up his or her unconscious at all. These can be like brooding and complaining later on in life making an adult unhappy and stressed. After 17 even if there is repression, it may not go into his or her unconscious because by that time they would have got conditioned enough to repress thoughts and ideas making thme happy in adult life inspite of challenges they face.

Also, controling their ego drives can help which probably is what Kirti is saying, so they will be well balanced and stressless.

Be friendly but don't compromise authority

idea posted by Jagdeep Kaur (vp@hrglobeconsulting.com) Vice President, HR Globe Consulting
Communicating is a part of life which is done throughout our lives.But i feel most important while making a teen a happy adult is that we make sure that when we communicate to them on their issues or their mental states or touching their pain areas we need to deal with caution. we should never let them feel that we are lecturing them or giving them sermons as they will never understand life from our perspective because they are TEENS...they would always want a shoulder that speaks their language.so the best way is to never give them solutions directly instead lead them to the solutions so that they feel that they are finding their own ways for their own problems and we are not giving them sermons instead we are happy with their found solutions(which were actually our planted.)make them feel that they are free to do anything provided they don't cross limits and setting limits is a prime duty of parents from the childhood.So in any case foundations have to be strong.Parents require to be friendly and approachable, making sure the authority is not compromised.

Try to avoid invisible exploitation

idea posted by Kaisar Ahmad Mir Program Manager, Jan Shikshan Sansthan (ANHAD)
We should try to observe teens carefully and examine them by giving them small responsibilities so that they can gain confidence by doing them properly. They should not be discouraged by saying that they can not this and that. If they do some wrong they should not be criticized in public. (Suppose) we give 100Rs to one & 200Rs to other, this can bring out rivalry among the teens in the long run. Eventually, I want to add that the future of a child depends on the upbringing.

More Awareness

idea posted by Dinesh Kumar Front Office Manager, Ramada Gulf Al Khobar

We need to enhance there knowledge such a manner so that they learn the things in detail, Simple example- If we have a pet and we keep in ring he will always try to bite at the same time if we create the awareness and teach the pet in more detail manner, would be altogether different.

Sports as necessary as studies

idea posted by Tanmay Gaur Freelance Software Developer

Teens should keep fit and participate in one or the other sport. Sports teaches us to fight and win-lose without being unhappy about it. Happiness is all about being good sport.

Have (atleast) one meal together

idea posted by Basab Nandi PMP® Sr. Project Manager | IMS & ITSM/ITIL (seeking change)
Yes, may sound odd but having one meal (BF/Dnr/Lnch) together with distractors(with TV/SMS/Call/iPod/..) off, discussions on plans/achievements/issues with all ready to listen to each other makes all the difference. This is something, all can accomodate - or can be persuaded to.
