Need for space- to explore a completely new world opening for them, is a very common need of teens. Many of them are curious and want to get out & do stuff they could never try as kids. Teens want the space to be themselves, to do what they wish to do without judgement and want to be independent from parents- in thoughts, beliefs & perceptions! Hence, they start detaching or stapling away.

Parents need not feel insecure if they have handled the earlier stages well- with love and compassion- then after the teen’s exploration phase is over, they come back! But if parents keep stepping in their space and use more control and rigid rules, it will only backfire. Parents need some self work in order to handle teens! They also need to remember their own teen years and try to see the present world from the eyes of their teens
