    PODCAST SCRIPT:

    Wise parents look at sudden outbursts of anger in their teenager as a warning sign.  It is an indication that there is something going on that needs to be dealt with.

    The best thing to with teen anger is to dig until you discover the underlying cause. Get them to a counselor. Don’t let it go, because it will keep causing behavioral trouble until it is dealt with.

    Behavior can be managed by applying consequences, but you can’t tell a child not to feel angry. Rather, they need help with what is causing their anger. Getting at the root of the problem and finding strategies for working through it gives them a way to get past the anger.
