Regardless of your own unique family situation, children and/or adolescents are a challenge to raise and did not come with an instruction manual. Most professionals who work with parents eventually encounter stressed-out moms and dads who have one or more difficult children.

How Do The Problems Start?

Your children and/or adolescents may present problems and issues that can lead to a chaotic and dysfunctional household. However, some parents fall into a trap; disciplining by "flying by the seat of their pants." This usually results in a lack of order and structure (something the "real world" operates on). This approach to parenting is greatly influenced by mood and energy level, which leads to chaos and dysfunction. This is usually when children and/or adolescents act out, exploit, and become empowered by this confusion.
