Love Your Teenager Assessment Test

By Barbara Rose, Ph.D.

If you truly love your teenager please hand him or her this assessment test every year. This will greatly help you both to experience the real peace, love and happiness you both deserve.

Simple Instructions: Hand your teen this sheet, along with a stack of paper, and ask him or her to write the numbers along with his or her answers on the blank sheets of paper.

1. If there is anything I do or say to you that upsets you, please write it down here.

2. Is there something that another member of our household does or says to you that upsets you? Please write down what it is so it can be cleared up.

3. Are you treated in a negative manner behind my back by anyone in our household?

4. What is that person doing or saying to you that has caused you upset? Please write it down so it can get cleared up.

5. Is there anything I complain about to you that you would like me to stop?

6. Is there a better way I can treat you that I have not been aware of? Please write down what it is.

7. Is there something that I have not been accepting about towards you? Please list it all, and let me know what you would like me to accept about you.

8. What actions have I done that caused you to feel unwanted, uncared for, unloved, unappreciated, and unaccepted? Please write it all down so it can all be cleared up.

9. If I could be the perfect parent, what would that look and feel like to you with respect to my words, actions, verbal and non-verbal communication?

10. Do you see a role model in another parent who treats his or her teen exactly the way you wish I would treat you? What does that parent do or say that I am not? Please write it down so I can learn.

It shows how much our children are our teachers. This gives teens the opportunity to express themselves openly and honestly, while being appreciated for it, which will help them to learn that what they say and how they feel matters. Greater self esteem, confidence, and trust in their own truth will enhance their ability to trust themselves, which is the hallmark of a life lived with real, unconditional self love and inner peace.
