What to do when you have lost control of your teenager?
Teenager Control: The Top 3
- Lay down the law. Do not allow places in your expectations that are free for interpretation.
- Communicate calmly. You should initiate a conversation with your teen about their troubling behavior.
- Focus on follow through. Leaving room for leniency in your disciplinary efforts is a no go.
How do you tell if your daughter is not a virgin?
Another form of virginity testing involves testing for laxity of vaginal muscles with fingers (the “two-finger test”). A doctor performs the test by inserting a finger into the female’s vagina to check the level of vaginal laxity, which is used to determine if she is “habituated to sexual intercourse”.
How do you tell a teenager to stay out of her room?

What should I do if my parents are living alone?
Manage the home: If your parent lived alone, it can be difficult to decide what to do with their home. You could start by making a list of ongoing costs you’ll need to continue paying, including utilities, upkeep and taxes. (For reference, consider your own household costs.)
How do you deal with a child who doesn’t get along?
Try to get on the same page with your spouse or co-parent so that your child doesn’t get conflicting messages. If possible, you want to parent as a team and present a unified front even if you are not entirely in agreement on how to proceed. If parents are divided, kids are unsure of the rules—what matters and what doesn’t.
What to do if you can’t find a will for your parent?
If you’re not sure there is one, ask friends, siblings or your parent’s lawyer whether there is a will and where to find it. You could also ask your parent’s bank, in case the will is in a safe deposit box there. (Each state’s laws determine who can access the safe deposit box of a deceased account holder.)
