Problem: Article: Many teens who have lost a parent as a child seem to be searching for someone to fill that void in their teenage years. Be open to the idea of guiding and mentoring the teen during these difficult years. Strive to be a positive role model for the teen and avoid exposing them to destructive behaviors. This may also include supporting the teen emotionally or financially. This is a very delicate situation and it's important to remind the teen that you are not trying to replace their parent, but to help honor them by supporting the teen. The teen you are mentoring will appreciate your genuine concern for their lost parent. It will give them a chance share memories (if they have them) and family stories. Also, make an effort to understand the circumstances around the parent's death. This will help you be more sensitive around tough topics. For example, if you know the teen's parent died in a car accident, you might be more patient if the teen seems timid in the driver's seat. Although grief takes many forms, some methods of grieving can cause long-term damage. Be sure to watch for signs of drinking, drug use, or other harmful methods of grieving and try to guide the teen to healthier methods of grieving. Warning signs of dangerous behavior can be subtle. People are unlikely to witness drinking or drug use directly, but may observe lying, significant weight loss, changes in sleeping patterns, etc. Suggest a physical activity to help channel their grief into something positive and healthy. Running, hiking, or yoga are all great physical activities that could help alleviate stress and center your emotions. If the teen discusses thoughts of suicide or hurting themselves, seek professional help immediately. Grief can last for a long time, especially in children and teens. Find out if there are any specific days that are more difficult for the teen. Many teens will struggle with holidays such as Christmas, or the deceased parent's birthday. Try to avoid downtime during these days. Keeping the teen busy will help distract them from their sadness. Be sure to remember their parent on this day. Say things like "I know you miss your parent(s), and you should keep them in mind and try to enjoy the day."
Summary: Become a parental figure in their life. Learn about the parent who was lost. Watch for warning signs. Know what holidays are hard.

Problem: Article: Don't use this time to gossip or spread false narratives about the situation. Only try to find the truth of what's happening and determine what the cause of the fight is. It's important to know why she isn't talking to you. This knowledge will help you know how to approach the situation in a positive way. By stepping out of your own mindset and understanding things from her point of view, you can come to a closer understanding of why what's happening is happening. Ask yourself things like "How have I acted around her recently?" and "When was the last time I thought of of her needs before thinking of my own?" Have someone play the part of the girl and have them ask questions about the situation. Then you will be ready to answer her when you talk and this will help your confidence so that you can remain cool under pressure. Do this with a trusted family member or friend. It would not be advisable to do this with someone who is her friend. Try to involve someone who only, at the most, knows her through you. You don't want to challenge the loyalty of her friends. Pride can destroy relationships. Even if you're not at fault, assuming a posture of humility will show her that you care about the connection to her enough to sacrifice for it. The sign that you have good partner is if she is able to do the same thing in return so that you can both figure out what's wrong. Vulnerability is key to fixing relationships. Sitting tight and letting her process emotions at her own pace shows that you are mature and respect her as an individual. If you become pushy and try to force the conversation before she's ready, she will interpret this as selfishness. Don't imagine all the things that could be going wrong; she probably just needs some time to herself.
Summary: Ask friends and family for their honest opinion. Try seeing things from her perspective. Practice having the conversation with others. Hold off on assuming you're right. Be patient.
