When your child was younger, your role was to lay the foundations for his behaviour. For example, you probably showed your child how to cooperate and take turns with others. Now your child is in his teens, he can start taking responsibility for his own behaviour. But you’re still an important role model.
3 What you do shows your child how you want her to behave. For example, how you cope with feelings like frustration and distress influences how your child regulates her emotions. What you eat, how much you exercise, and how you look after yourself all influence your child. What you say is also important. You can help your child to manage and control his behaviour by talking about how behaviour affects other people. You can also talk more with your child about the differences between right and wrong. Now’s a good time for this because your child is developing his ability to understand other people’s experiences and feelings. You might think that your child’s peers and friends have a stronger influence in the teenage years than you do. Friends and peers do influence your child, but so do you - it’s just that peer influence is different from your influence. Your child’s friends are more likely to influence everyday behaviour, like the music your child listens to or the clothes he wears. As a parent, you influence your child’s basic values, like religious values, and issues related to her future, like educational choices. And the stronger your relationship with your child, the more influence you’ll have. That’s because your child values your good opinion, advice and support. In fact, it’s likely that when your child becomes a young adult, he’ll end up with values, beliefs and behaviour that are similar to yours. (Adapted from https://raisingchildren.net.au/ ) 31.
