a Herculean task?

The Bible talks about children being an heritage and a blessing and it is pure joy to watch a little baby in your hands transform to a young adult, a teenager to be exact.
Teenagers fall between the ages of 13 and 19, that is the period a lot of  transformation takes place. Teenagers believe they are the most misunderstood set of people, whether it is true or not is debatable but what most people agree with is that communicating with their teenagers is an uphill task.
There tend to be times when negative words outweigh positive, making communication impossible. Teenagers feel parent do not listen and parent feel they now have an antagonistic and difficult child on their hands.
