Some of the most hurtful and harmful things that can assist in the dwindling chances of positive change in troubled teens are the words we use to them and about them. Teens with poor behavior issues are not bad people, but more often then not their decisions can be described as “bad”. The poor choices in words used by those surrounding your troubled teen can be demeaning and often taken literal. They can sometimes even be used as an excuse for teens to continue making poor decisions. Teens can think, “Well I’m a ‘bad teen’. Bad teens make these kind of decisions”. As friends and family of a struggling teenager, it is crucial to choose our words carefully in order to give them more positive feelings when it comes to their poor behaviors.
