Teenagers should find a healthy balance in life! Too much screen time can affect teenagers in a negative way. In such ways like damaging the eyes, anti social behaviour, patience levels. Finding a balance between school work, recreational time and spending time with the family and cleaning your bedroom are some of the suggestions to find the right balance. Oh and get a part-time job!
I agree, Kathy. Often teenagers find cleaning their room is a very difficult thing to do, but like doing ANY chores around the house, to help the family, it is a way of learning about responsibility and independence.
My son is about to leave home. He usually has a messy room. I think he’s going to live in a mess unless he changes. It might be difficult for him to live with other people if he’s messy and they’re neat.
What do you think about this?

Oh Kathy, do you really think teenagers should also clean their bedrooms? Isn’t that a bit radical?
I do not think it a bit radical at all.
We must encourage responsibility and this starts with the simple task such as cleaning your room.
