Your teen needs the kind of relationship that doesn’t stop

Your teen needs the kind of relationship that doesn’t stop, even if they overstep the boundaries.
There will be times when your teenager will test the boundaries. Even so, keep reminding them: “There’s nothing you can do to make me love you more, and nothing you can do can make me love you less.” In other words, their mistakes won’t end your relationship. You will love them just the same regardless of their actions, and you’ll also love them enough to enforce appropriate consequences if needed.
What your child wants more than anything else is to have a solid relationship with you. Of course they also want more freedom and will test your boundaries; if not, they’ll never mature.
