Communication Skills

The Emotional Lives of Teenagers

Lisa Damour

Managing emotions is as vital as expressing them, and equipping your teen with tools like distraction, sufficient sleep, and reframing negative thoughts can help them navigate overwhelming feelings. Distractions, such as engaging in enjoyable activities, can reset their focus, while prioritizing 8–10 hours of sleep supports emotional balance. Encouraging realistic perspectives over overly optimistic reassurances fosters resilience. Dispelling myths about teen mental health—such as the belief that emotions oppose reason, difficult feelings should be avoided, or teens are inherently unstable—allows parents to better support their adolescent’s growth. Teens are mastering emotional control, a skill requiring both expression and regulation, as they navigate the complexities of adolescence. This journey is compounded by their brain’s rapid development and the emotional process of separating their identity from yours, often leading to conflict and frustration. However, these challenges are natural and temporary. By encouraging perspective-taking and maintaining constructive communication, you can foster mutual understanding and guide your teen toward emotional maturity.
