Parenting Mistakes That Could Affect Your Teen’s Self-Identity

 What is Self-Identity?

Before we jump into the mistakes, let’s understand what self-identity actually is.

Your teen is in a phase where they are trying to figure out:
 🧠 Who am I?
 💬 What do I believe?
 💡 What makes me different?

Their self-identity is being shaped by experiences at home, school, with peers — and especially by how we as parents respond to them.

Whether your child grows up feeling confident or constantly second-guessing themselves depends a lot on what happens inside the four walls of your home.”

: Mistake #1 – Constant Criticism 

Mistake #2 – Comparison with Others 

Mistake #3 – Dismissing Their Feelings or Opinions
