If parents want to help launch their teens into adulthood, start by not doing the following three things:

1. STOP Doing Things They Can Do for Themselves

Parents, if you do everything for your kids, don't expect them to naturally outgrow that level of help.

2. STOP Sweating the Small Stuff (and Most of It Is Small Stuff)

Too often, parents are hyper-focused and overly involved in every aspect of their kid's lives, big and small. And it's doing nobody any favors.

3. STOP Preventing Them from Failing and Facing the Consequences of Their Choices

Your willingness to see your child struggle communicates that you believe they are capable and that they can handle any outcome, even a negative one.
