A member asked:

How can i reduce the pressure on my teens to act older?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If the pressure...: ...Is from you, then don't apply the pressure. If the pressure is from another family member, speak with them about your concerns. If the pressure is from peers, there's nothing you can do about it. You can, however, discuss this with your kids so they know you support them and so they have the strength to cope.
