Moving With a Teenager – Tips for Teens
If you’re moving and you have children the bellyaching in your Dyer, Crown Point, or Cedar Lake home has undoubtedly already started. And if you have teenagers the bellyaches may have morphed into moping, passive aggression, and even outright outbursts. Here are a few tips to pass directly on to your teens to help them help themselves through the stress of a move. Parents need read no further. This is for teens only:
- Plan the room you’re moving into. Get the dimensions from your parents of your new bedroom. Where is the door, the windows? Are you going to have the same setup you had in your old room, or are you going to shake things up since you have to move everything around anyway.
- Put together an MP3 playlist of favorite songs for the move. Talk your parents into playing it on the drive to the new house. Tell them that article with moving tips for teens they made you read said it would be therapeutic.
- Take pictures along the way. Use your digital camera or smartphone. Post them on your Facebook or Myspace or wherever you have an account where you share stuff with your friends. Post pics of your new school, new room, new backyard, new friends.
- Cut your folks some slack. They love you, and the move is stressful for them too. They’re trying to do what’s best for the whole family.
