Teenagers' most common problem is aggression.

Because the prefrontal lobe of teenagers is still developing, it can only be addressed with patience. It takes more than a decade for it to reach its full potential. As a result, you should offer them a break from their hostile behavior.

To take a break from it, say something softly and with soothing body language to them. For at least a few days, don't bring up that behavior. Give them time to rewire their brain. After a few days, approach them when they are not expecting it, such as during a coffee break, a drive, or a stall. Talk to them politely and tell them how you expected them to act in that situation. And then leave it at that.

You can expect these on track in the near future.
