Most parent-teen fights aren’t really about curfews, phones, grades, or chores — they’re about the emotional language teens use and the practical language parents use. Ruth Kongaika unpacks how teens often express fear, shame, or loneliness through anger, silence, or sarcasm, and translates common scenarios (curfew, grades, chores) into the feelings underneath.
Learn two simple skills—name what you notice and hold the boundary—and try ready-to-use lines like “Help me understand what this feels like for you” or “I get that this makes you feel left out, and the curfew is still ten.” Short, practical tools for parents and teens to turn conflict into connection.
