I registered my 16yo to go on a mission trip. He originally agreed because his college counselor strongly suggested this camp since he is already working on personal statements for his college essay. He will be 17 next month and a Senior. Now that the time has come for him to go on the mission trip (this Sunday) he is refusing to go. What do you suggest I do in this situation? Should I continue to encourage/push him to go? Or do I let him win this battle? Please help!
My teen did a risky think on their own! Help!
Yesterday my teenaged daughter pierced her ear to put on another earring… She had told me a long time ago that she wanted to and I told her yes, that I also wanted to do it but we would do it later, that we could start with one of those that are like clips before we make a hole. It passed for a while, but a week ago she started not only wanting to get one, but that she wanted to do it HERSELF.
