Why Teens Act Out and How to Stop It—Mighty Parenting 210 with Dr Cam

We parents often call the teen years the most difficult stage of raising a kid; they come with everything from backtalk to door slamming, skipping curfews, arguing and emotional outbursts of all kinds. Our teens act out, and it’s tiring and frustrating and it feels like we say one thing and they hear something completely different. Dr. Cameron “Cam” Caswell and Mighty Parenting podcast host Sandy Fowler discuss how to use values-based parenting and the CALM technique to help us understand where our teens are coming from and how we can grow and learn together instead of trying to consistently fix or correct their behaviors.
