The concept of parental authority has changed. Today, no parent can take their children’s
respect for granted: authority has to be earned. Several studies have shown the following problems.
Trust: A lot of young people say their parents read all their emails, and enter their rooms
without knocking. All of these actions demonstrate lack of respect. Consequently, these
teenagers have little respect for their parents.
Communication: Hardly any teens discuss their problems with their parents. That’s
because very few teens feel their parents really listen to them. Instead, most parents tend
to fire off an immediate response to their kids’ first sentence.
Freedom: Interestingly, most rebels come from very authoritarian homes where kids have
very little freedom. Teens need fewer rules but they have to be clear and unchangeable.
Also, if the mother and father don’t agree about discipline, teens have less respect for
both parents. They also need a lot of effort and a little freedom to make their own
decisions. None of them enjoys just listening to adults.
Role models: Teens don’t have much respect for their parents if neither of them actually
does things that they expect their children to do. Like everybody, teens appreciate people
who practise what they preach.
