MAKING DEPOSITS IN YOUR TEEN’S EMOTIONAL BANK
Parenting teens is not just about rules and results. It’s about relationship.
Just like a bank account, your teen has an "emotional bank".
Every kind word is a deposit.
Every criticism without love is a withdrawal.
Every hug, every "I see you", every time you listen without fixing... that’s a deposit.
And when the hard days come, when they make mistakes, when they need correction they’ll draw from what you’ve deposited.
Teens won’t remember every lecture.
But they will remember how you made them feel.
Parents, what’s one deposit you made in your teen this week?
Teens, what’s one thing your parents do that makes you feel loved?
Drop it in the comments 👇🏽 Let’s learn from each other.
"Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." Ephesians 6:4
Let’s raise teens who know they are loved, seen, and valued. At home first.
