Adolescents &  As your teen develops more independent decision-making skills, you'll

need to balance your unconditional love and support with clear


Teens  expectations, rules, and boundaries.

 Continue to show plenty of affection and attention. Make time every


day to talk. Young people are more likely to make healthy choices if
they stay connected with family members.

 Get to know your teen's friends and talk about responsible and
respectful relationships.

 Acknowledge your teen's efforts, achievements, and success in what


they do―and don't do. Praise the choice to avoid using tobacco, e-
cigarettes, alcohol, or other drugs. Set a good example through your
own responsible use of alcohol and other substances.
