Teen Q&A: Teens and activities ... (2008/10/07)
Q: As I expected, our family time is almost nil with the kids’ activities and our jobs. I have read some of your recent columns, so I have seen the suggestions about limiting kids’ activities, and to some extent I disagree. I think it is important for kids to be very scheduled so there is little time for getting lazy or finding trouble. I do, however, want to spend more time together as a family. Sounds like I am contradicting myself, but we have three teens, which is part of the reason our schedule is crazy.

John Rosemond: Confusion of roles is No. 1 family problem (2008/10/07)
A journalist recently asked me to name the No. 1 problem facing today’s family.

Teen Q&A: Teens need to be taught respect, life balance (2008/10/04)
Q: I do not understand why teens today are so disrespectful to their parents. I don’t get what we have done to create such mouthy kids, and I am willing to admit it, so don’t tear me apart.

John Rosemond: Think outside of the box for discipline (2008/10/04)
As regular readers of this column know, my advice tends toward the “psychologically incorrect” end of the spectrum. As a consequence, I frequently receive anecdotes from parents who solved their children’s behavior problems by thinking outside the box.

Teen Q&A: Teen pregnancy, underage drinking ... (2008/09/27)
Q: I was watching the news this week about the increase in teen pregnancies nationwide, and I don’t get it. I thought the whole birth control, safe sex and sex education was put in front of teens to improve the situation.

John Rosemond: Halloween is harmless fun (2008/09/27)
Q: I do not like the implications of Halloween, but my husband does, so we allow the kids to dress up as fun/positive characters. Our son is now 7 and is asking to go to the local haunted house. My husband thinks this is OK, but I would like to keep the negative aspects of Halloween out of the picture as much as possible. What say you?

Teen Q&A: Keeping teens safe can be a real challenge (2008/09/20)
Q: I am wondering if you have had many questions or experiences with teens and computer use? Our two teens are in high school and like most kids are on the computer for school as well as personal use.

John Rosemond: Take a cue from TV sitcoms and lighten up about kids (2008/09/20)
Q: Our 16-year-old daughter constantly tells her younger siblings what to do and how to do it and that the way they do things isn’t good enough. It creates daily friction in the family. What can we do to make it stop?

Teen Q&A: Can single parents find time for family, for self? (2008/09/13)
Q: I have four kids younger than 17 and have been a single parent since my wife passed away three years ago. There are days when I wonder how I keep going, but most days have been better than I would have expected.

Parenting: Keep restless kids out of pews (2008/09/13)
Q: We’re having a discussion — somewhat of a debate, actually — in our church over when it’s appropriate to allow children to sit with their parents during worship. What is your recommendation?
