Coping with Teenagers’ Emotions gives some practical suggestions to help teach teens how to manage their emotions. When teens become emotional, it can be difficult for parents to calm them down. The important thing is for teens to learn how to calm themselves when they get upset about something. Parents can help by acknowledging the emotional experience and providing appropriate support without being intrusive. Learning to manage emotions is an important life skill! This program will explain how parents can use some simple positive
parenting strategies to help prevent problems and to cope with teens’ emotional behavior if it occurs.
Triple P is a research-based, internationally-recognized, multilevel parent support program funded by Licking Memorial Health Systems and supported by Mental Health and Recovery of Licking and Knox Counties and Our Futures in Licking County.
