Trade reminders for routines to motivate your teen

If you still manage your teen’s every move, he will only do things because you push him. This isn’t motivation. Motivation happens when teens feel, from within, a reason to act. Encourage your teen to create routines he can rely on instead of your reminders. Routines work well for homework (schedule a time and place to do it) and chores (establish responsibilities and post a schedule with deadlines).
