<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The teenage years can present numerous challenges that parents must adapt to, and it’s vital for a child’s development that parents don’t give up on teaching them responsibility, even when they start talking back with an attitude. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the second full-length episode of “</span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Parenting</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">,” Dr. Jordan Peterson sits down with parents Jamie and Casey to talk through ways they can foster responsibility with their 13-year-old son, who is prone to throwing tantrums when he’s told something he doesn’t like. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We&#8217;ve got two kids, a 13-year-old and a 5-year-old,” the father, Casey, said. “Our 13-year-old, of course, was the only child for seven years. During that time, we spoiled the heck out of him because I grew up with nothing. And Jamie grew up in a household where things were love.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We both ended up funneling our attention on our children into things for those two reasons,” Casey added. “As a result, our 13-year-old throws tantrums quite often, loud screaming tantrums when he doesn&#8217;t get his way. And we&#8217;re trying to figure out how to get him through this part of his life to become a responsible adult.”</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The parents asked Peterson how they can handle their teen’s behavior and push him in the right direction. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I think it helps when I talk to him like a human being,” Jamie said. “So if I ask him to do dishes or I say, ‘I really need you to help me with this, do you think you can do that?’ And he’ll say, ‘Yes.’”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Peterson then pointed to multiple questions parents can ask their children about contributing to household needs. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“Well, he&#8217;s old enough to start thinking about that because he may never even notice that if he does pull his weight, he feels better about himself, and he&#8217;s more mature,” Peterson said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Watch “</span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/parenting"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Teaching Responsibility</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">,” the latest episode of “Parenting,” on DailyWire+ to find out how Peterson advised that Casey and Jaimie, and parents like them, foster a relationship with their teenagers while also pushing them to become responsible adults. </span></p>
