    TODAY’S SCRIPT:

    Far and away, most kids get through adolescence without serious issues. It’s usually something out of the past that causes some kids to rebel.

    Like a ship without a rudder, kids with emotional hurts and losses in their life are more likely to get blown off course in the introspective teen years. Losses can include the split-up of the family, feeling rejected by their birth mother, a death of someone close, or childhood abuse.

    Since of the underlying causes of rebellion are usually hidden, it’s best to enlist a trained counselor to uncover and work through them with your teen.

    A counselor can decipher the mystery behind changes in behavior and help your teen find a more appropriate way to deal with the past.
