Mengatasi Perilaku Berontak Pada Remaja: Panduan untuk Orang Tua
Remaja sering kali mengalami masa transisi yang sulit, di mana mereka mencoba menemukan identitas mereka sendiri dan mandiri dari orang tua mereka. Salah satu cara mereka mengekspresikan perasaan ini adalah dengan perilaku berontak. Meskipun normal dalam perkembangan remaja, berbagai tindakan berontak bisa menimbulkan kekhawatiran bagi orang tua dan pengasuh. Berikut adalah beberapa langkah yang dapat diambil untuk mengatasi perilaku berontak pada remaja:
1. Mendengarkan dengan Empati
Mendengarkan dengan penuh perhatian dan tanpa menghakimi adalah langkah pertama yang penting. Jadilah pendengar yang baik saat remaja Anda ingin berbicara tentang perasaan, kekhawatiran, atau ketidakpuasan mereka. Ini memberi mereka ruang untuk merasa didengar dan dihargai.
2. Jalin Hubungan yang Kuat
Hubungan yang kuat antara orang tua dan remaja dapat membantu mengurangi perilaku berontak. Luangkan waktu untuk melakukan kegiatan bersama, seperti makan malam bersama atau berolahraga. Buatlah lingkungan yang terbuka di mana mereka merasa nyaman untuk berbicara tentang masalah dan tantangan yang mereka hadapi.
3. Tetap Tenang dalam Menanggapi Konflik
Menghadapi perilaku berontak dengan kemarahan atau hukuman yang berlebihan mungkin memperburuk situasi. Cobalah untuk tetap tenang dan terkendali dalam menanggapi konflik. Berbicaralah dengan jelas tentang aturan dan konsekuensinya, tetapi juga berikan kesempatan bagi remaja untuk menjelaskan perspektif mereka.
4. Tetap Konsisten dengan Batasan
Menetapkan batasan yang jelas dan konsisten merupakan bagian penting dari mendidik remaja. Ini memberi mereka struktur dan kepastian dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Pastikan untuk menjelaskan alasan di balik aturan tersebut dan bersedia bernegosiasi jika diperlukan.
5. Ajak Remaja untuk Mencari Solusi
Libatkan remaja dalam menemukan solusi untuk masalah yang muncul. Ajak mereka untuk berpikir kreatif tentang cara mengatasi konflik atau kesulitan yang mereka alami. Ini membantu mereka merasa memiliki kontrol atas kehidupan mereka dan belajar mengelola konflik secara mandiri.
6. Sediakan Dukungan Emosional
Remaja mungkin mengalami tekanan dari berbagai sumber, termasuk sekolah, teman sebaya, dan perubahan hormonal. Tunjukkan dukungan emosional kepada mereka dengan mengakui perasaan mereka dan memberikan dorongan positif. Bantu mereka menemukan cara untuk mengelola stres dan mengatasi tantangan yang mereka hadapi.
7. Cari Bantuan Profesional Jika Diperlukan
Jika perilaku berontak remaja menjadi sangat merugikan atau sulit untuk ditangani, pertimbangkan untuk mencari bantuan dari profesional, seperti psikolog atau konselor. Mereka dapat memberikan saran dan dukungan tambahan dalam mengelola masalah tersebut.
Perilaku berontak adalah bagian normal dari perkembangan remaja, tetapi dapat menimbulkan tantangan bagi orang tua dan pengasuh. Dengan mendengarkan dengan empati, membangun hubungan yang kuat, dan tetap konsisten dengan batasan, Anda dapat membantu remaja mengatasi konflik dan mengembangkan keterampilan yang diperlukan untuk menjadi dewasa yang tangguh. Tetaplah terbuka untuk berkomunikasi dan berikan dukungan yang mereka butuhkan selama masa ini yang menantang.
Passive Present & Past
Passive Present
Remember that the verb "to be" has to be used in all passive sentences and must be plural if the subject is plural:
This phone is made of plastic.
but
These chairs are made of wood.
After the verb "to be", you must use the past participle in all tenses.
Vintage wine is sold on the second floor.
notVintage wine is sell on the second floor.
The passive is used in the present often to describe processes:
The half-finished machine is then sent to Room 4 for painting.
The wine is then taken and put into bottles.
I was driven around in the taxi at high speed.
We were treated terribly at the hotel last year.
I had to be taken to hospital immediately.
Note how the passive in English is more flexible than in other languages. Look at these two sentences:
The letter was sent by Express Post and arrived at 9am.
I was sent a letter by my wife.
In the first, it's clear that the subject of the passive sentence is the letter. In the second, it is not "I" that is sent, but, again, the letter. English allows for this type of construction. Other examples:
They were given a new TV for Christmas. (the TV is given, not 'they')
She was promised a pay rise by the boss. (the pay rise is promised, not 'she')
Passive Overview
We form the passive using the relevant tense of the verb to be, plus the past participle of the main verb.
So for the verb clean, we would have:
Passive Summary of Tenses | |
---|---|
Present Simple Present Continuous Past Simple Past Continuous Future Simple Going To Future Present Perfect Past Perfect Simple Can Should | The room is cleaned every day It is being cleaned now It was cleaned yesterday It was being cleaned at six yesterday It will be cleaned tomorrow It is going to be cleaned tomorrow It has been cleaned twice It had been cleaned before It can be cleaned easily It should be cleaned daily |
To form the question, we put the auxiliary verb first:
Is it being cleaned today?
Had it been cleaned before?
Should it be cleaned daily?
How to Use Passive
Look at this sentence:
They will deliver the letter tomorrow.
"the letter" is the object of the sentence. "they" is the subject. We can make "the letter" the subject:
The letter will be delivered tomorrow.
And if we want, we can include the subject of the first sentence:
The letter will be delivered by them tomorrow.
So we use the passive to say what happens to the subject of a sentence.
The bridge was painted in 1999.
Military jets are usually flown by men.
The flight to Boston will be delayed because of the striking ground crew.
And we use an active sentence to say what a subject does:
John Exmoor painted that bridge in 1999.
Air Force pilots, usually men, fly military jets.
Striking ground crew will delay the departure of the Boston flight.
Sometimes, active sentences sound unnatural because who does the action is not important or not known. The action itself is important.
Tickets can be purchased from the booth at the entrance.
Spanish is spoken in much of South America.
Edward Moore was killed at his farm late last night.
The same sentences rewritten using the active would not be wrong, but the subject of these sentences would sound strange:
You can purchase tickets from the booth at the entrance.
People speak Spanish in much of South America.
Someone killed Edward Moore at his farm late last night.
Future Continuous Tense
We make the future continuous tense by using the future of the verb "to be" plus the main verb in the "-ing" form.
So, for the verb "sit":
Present Continuous | ||
---|---|---|
Positive | Negative | Question |
I will be sitting You will be sitting He will be sitting She will be sitting It will be sitting We will be sitting You will be sitting They will be sitting | I won't be sitting You won't be sitting He won't be sitting She won't be sitting It won't be sitting We won't be sitting You won't be sitting They won't be sitting | Will I be sitting? Will you be sitting? Will he be sitting? Will she be sitting? Will it be sitting? Will we be sitting? Will you be sitting? Will they be sitting? |
Examples:
When your mother arrives at 6pm tomorrow, you will still be working.
As you arrive at work on Monday morning, I will be sitting on a beach in Cuba!
Don't call us at 9pm. We'll be eating dinner at that time.
Just like the past continuous, it can also be used to give information about what will be happening in the background. Using the tense like this is quite unusual.
Examples:
I hope when I get up tomorrow, the birds will be singing and my mum will be cooking my breakfast!
Practice
Look at these future sentences and decide if they are correct or wrong.

Permission & Obligation: Make, Let, Allow
These three words are used to talk about permission and obligation.
MAKE
If someone obliges, forces someone to do something, we use "make". The construction is:
make someone do something.
Unlike most verb, then, we don't use "to" in the infinitive.
Examples:
My teacher made me do extra homework because of the trouble I caused.
Some banks make you pay too many bank charges.
In the passive, we add "to" after make.
She was made to leave the room while the plans were discussed.
LET
If we have permission from someone to do something, we use "let". The construction is:
let someone do something.
Again, we don't use "to" in the infinitive.
Examples:
My mother lets me stay out till midnight on a Saturday.
Let me go! I promise I won't tell anyone.
- In the passive, let is not possible. We must use allow to:
I was allowed to leave early.
ALLOW TO
If someone gives us permission or the possibility to do something, we use "allow to". The construction is:
allow someone to do something.
Examples:
Working from home allows me to spend more time with my family
My father never allows me to stay out too late.
It is used very often in the passive. In this way, the person given the permission is made the subject of the sentence.
You're not allowed to smoke in this room.
They're not allowed to get married yet. Their parents say they are too young.
