I'm a teenage boy, and I realy want to conect with my mom, and I know I make it tough on her some times, but I still love her, and I sent this to her, and I hope this brings us closer, so thank you!

[@gl9367]

That's a great step coming from you. I hope you and mom are ok now.

[@harmony3395]

How lovely, hope that’s working out

[@victoriawaterswaters8805]

Look how much love is flowing toward you from your desire to get more love from your mum. Hope all goes well but if it don't then do not blame yourself and know it is not personal even though it feels that way. Know that you are awesome whatever happens:)

[@pinkykaur8760]

Hey tin, I hope you and your mom are doing great, not just in health wise but your relationship too. Take care

[@venusvlog780]

Thank you🥰

[@gailpaullin8842]

I am a single mother and this helped me. I have found when I go to my son and say I was wrong. I should not have dumped on him, it brings us closer. I am acknowledging him as a person and thinking about his feelings. He will talk about times when I apologized to him and how much it means to him. Even months and years later.

[@3KeyElements]

Beautiful! Thank you for sharing this.

My 15 year old woke up one day and decided he wants to be a professional boxer/MMA fighter, says it's his passion..... this kid went to a UFC gym for like 2 months, I bought him a boxing/ kicking bag. He plays with it for like 15 minutes a day. This boy has never been in a fight in his life, never been punched in the face. I don't want him going into this field and getting hurt or getting killed! But to him, I'm being "unsupportive"

[@jjsmama401]

Update?

[@thecolonel9857]

I’m a teenage boy and this is accurate.

[@harmony3395]

Thanks for sharing.

Let them choose. Wow. Thank you. So beautifully said.

[@michelleguzman1970]

Hi, I'm a si gle mom of a 16 y/o teen. He's navigating rough waters right now, and I was looking for something to connect with him. When it comes to his feelings, for some reason, he says that he doesn't want to tell me 😢😢 I reassure him that it's OK to talk to me or trusted friends... as long as he talks with someone. In that process, when he was younger, I found this wonderful book: What a son needs from his mom by Cheri Fuller. Thanks for the video and for sharing your personal experiences 😊😊🎉🎉

[@crazeekids9744]

Mom of 6 here. Ages 13-17 just sucks, boys and girls. Just do the best you can. They won’t always be teenagers.

[@juanpablocastano2192]

Hello mothers, I'm an 18 year old boy watching this 😳

[@okeg4365]

Im a teenager girl with no brothers. Idk why im watchin it

[@tinabensinger5419]

Is she right Juan?

[@sprinklenose4445]

I soon needed this in my life at this moment. I will use these strategies.

[@amymcneill3496]

Oh my word, this is fantastic! Thank you so much. I am connecting better, but the criticism really was an ahhhh haaa moment! 💕

[@3KeyElements]

Our pleasure - so thrilled you're connecting!

[@hopegomes1819]

Wow! You're awesome! I'm impressed. That you can shine from the first part to the last. How do you do that in your garage? I really really enjoyed it 😊. So cool! Thank you for sharing with me and my son. I living with him for the first time since he was 13. He's now 24. I'm playing catch up. We're baking bread together late at night, it's wonderful. Melissa, Arcata Ca. Namaste 🙏

[@victoriawaterswaters8805]

It's real simple..you love em and respect them.

[@dawnhannaberg5153]

What an eye opener for me!! Thank you so much

[@filukkasunivers2389]

i feel like i do most of this, but maybe i am too critical some times and my son has negative thoughts about him self, it makes me so sad. He is 13 and I tell him several times a day that i Love him, I write it on notes, on the mirror and i hug him if he let´s me so he feels loved.

[@designandcreativity8816]

I am a mother of a teenager boy....my son don't like my touch....sometimes I feels so depressed with his behavior because it hurts me alot ....what should I do?

[@daisy1441]

My son reacts to me the same way. My thought is he finds the physical expressions fake since he THINKS I have a low opinion of him. (Any advice, to do's, sad or worried looks means this to him). I am going to try the texting thing she suggested in order to change his Thinking. Wish me luck 💚

[@heathrsfeathrs]

Find his "love language". It sounds like physical touch is not his love language and you won't be able to reach him in that way, even if it's your love language. But one of these is: words of affirmation, quality time spent with him, gifts, or acts of service. You can visit this website or read "The Five Love Languages of Teenagers" by Gary Chapman. Hope this helps!

[@Mrsamdunk]

My mom did the opposite of all of these and now I have resentment towards her. If these were practiced and came from an authentic place I would feel a lot different.

[@DebRoo11]

She did her best at that time in her life. Being an adult now, let it go, have the conversations and mend that relationship. You may find out where she was coming from and the whole picture. Give some grace

[@aprilhottinger]

This Chanel saved me Thank you so much mam ❤I am a new subscriber ❤

Thank you so much for sharing this. I really needed it

[@aprilhottinger]

I’m going to keep texting everyday to my son and showing him affection

[@shubhajain9709]

Beautiful explation😍😍👍👍keep posting

[@windvesper]

My 14 year old son just overheard this as I was listening and he really likes your ideas and perked right up. He's the oldest of 3 boys and 1 girl. I'm definitely going to use these tips. One other thing we do is to make sure we have some one on one time with the kids and listen to what they have to say and how they are doing, body language included.

[@3KeyElements]

Love it - Especially when the kids get involved!

[@ahanabanerjee01]

What if the friends are a bad influence

[@jithinprimz2972]

My mum was worried about that too, now I have no friends and now I live 10000 of km away from home because nothing hold me there.....

[@DR-bp1yu]

All the more reason for you to be there, to be able to support him and to understand what he is going through, and if it gets really bad, you can get help. I try to provide information to him but not make it a controll thing, I try to help him think about consequences in a way that doesn't seem judgmental. But with teens this can be hard as sometimes they interpret anything as judgemental or attempts to control. We can only do our very best, but at least you'll be there and can get help, if needed.

[@whydowelive]

Let them make their choices, that's how they learn..

[@tinatoka]

Thank you . For this .it helps alot .

[@reenasingh-id9zh]

Everything u said is awesome ,i really think that way only but here in my case as much as i am trying to incorporate these things in myself ,my husband is heading exactly in opposite direction . I am in such a pain as my adult son is trying to figure out something in his life mentally and emotionally and my husband is critical of him all the time . I know that my husband want his best only but his ways of dealing with his son is not going to work at all. Its hard to communicate with my husband ,impossible ,he doesnt get my point . I can go my own ways to handle my son but husband gets desperate and irritated and he behave in such away that if i take one step forward with my son ,we go two steps backward right away

[@mentorkawirachats8006]

I feel you Mama

[@charlenefunderburke4505]

[@inesanton4707]

[@rajendrapatel3200]

Thanks

[@amandeepbrar285]

I love your ideas 👌

[@anitaabraham4581]

The more I try my best to our teenage boy the more he said to my face he doesn't listen to me ,all this happen because his father support everything he does even when he does wrong and he 13years of age,I don't know all his friends, please tell me what should I do ,I am from Africa, and he is my only son atoff 4kids 7grade in school by struggle please advise me what to do

[@belindabotes6569]

Wow you look great!

[@fanyfeliz1]

Thank you it is a nice video. I usually tex my son any information I want him to know or any encouragement words I want to let him know and it works.

[@jazminearceneaux7452]

Ok my son is that 3rd son who isn’t as affectionate and doesn’t want to be bothered I tell him that he’s breaking my heart because he use to be soo affectionate. But right around 11/12 yes old he started withdrawing and distancing himself and I really want to reconnect with him.

[@gl9367]

Just keep trying to connect with him on his location as she explained in the video. With much patience and perseverance coming from you, your son will come around. A lot of teenagers go through a year or two of being like that, then one day they will be back to their old loving self again. It will really surprise you how it works out that way. Every moment is an opportunity to make things better, not worse. Think of your effort as a seed you are planting. You may not see the growth for a while, but you keep watering it, nurturing it. The roots will grow and the sprout will eventually show. I wish you the best!

[@stevendrewtaylor7997]

[@aadityasinghania3689]

Yes rest all what you said is right ❤️❤️

[@amandacountryman8024]

I just wanted to say thank you for this video. My son will be 15 next month and we had a huge argument last night about him leaving his friends house and riding around in a car with someone older. I know it's not the end of the world but it's a broken rule in our house and he just doesn't see the big deal. Things progressed and because of his attitude, he lost his phone and xbox. Now he wont even talk to me or my husband. I can do better as a mom but how do you discipline/ punish teenage boys when they brake a family discussed rule and have them not hate you???????

[@Weirdz1229]

By beating them tell they cry for air and then beat them some more until they end up in a coma or DEAD

[@Boba_beans]

[@nighistghile2756]

I learn from ur teach Gbu sistet

[@Rome274]

I've done these but I still don't really connect with my 18 year old son . He is the one that's critical with me yet I'm a decent person. I dont think I deserve the not picking etc.

[@aproudhater9158]

Don't u think teenage girls also need the path of guidance to be a better daughter in future?

[@3KeyElements]

Absolutely! Kim just doesn't have any daughters to share from personal experience. :) Many of these tips would work for a daughter as well!

[@Joe-fi2cu]

Not any friend !!

[@mtmjabb9127]

I can only dream my mom was like I 😔

[@thomas25082]

No no no

[@crystalcleveland756]

My son is this is Snapchat he’s always on it so that’s where I can connect w him over text messages

[@mattymobbs5125]

O why not dad lol

[@TheNecessaryEvil]

Stay married and don’t have married a jackass in the first place. Boys need dads. Girls need dads. Not two dads. One dad who is present. One mom who is present. Thus endeth the lesson

[@victoriaparsons4378]

Great tips! Thank you!
