there are times when you are trying to communicate to a teenager when you wonder whether or not you are getting through. their response or lack thereof is for the most part discouraging. you are looking for that one particular response that would suggest that you got through and sometimes even when you do get that, the teen’s action lets the air out of your “balloon”. most times if you are lucky you will get a grunt for a response or that familiar blank stare.
frustrating!
discouraging!
seemingly hopeless!
may i suggest that you do not give up! every wild stallion has to be ridden until he is subdued and become responsive to its rider. so will that seemingly unresponsive teen. make sure you “ride” in love and not out of frustration or anger. keep looking at the big picture. use the “bit” carefully so that you do not cause more harm. pray for wisdom and a change of heart. its through patience and endurance that we obtain the ‘prize”.
any suggestions of how to communicate to the uncommunicatable?
