Summary: When teens step out of line, I always encourage parents to uncover the real reason behind their behavior. But in certain circumstances, it’s possible they’re dealing with a good ol’ case of rebellion. Hi, I’m Mark Gregston … with Parenting Today’s Teens. If you truly have a rebellious teen on your hands, here’s my encouragement: God has not abandoned you! Even when you don’t see it, He’s at work. And in due time, God’s gonna use everything that’s happening in the life of your teen to bring him or her to a better place. Now, it’s the “due time” part that’s the kicker for us. It could be a month, or it could be twenty years. But however long it takes, don’t underestimate God’s continual involvement in your situation. He hasn’t left you or your teen … and He never will.
