Discipline
n.noun
dis·ci·pline
Discipline is one's ability to do the right thing, regardless of how they feel. Discipline is one of the most difficult things for a person to develop as it takes hard work, dedication, and can take years to achieve. Those who develop strong discipline tend to be more successful and happier than those who do not develop strong discipline.
Troubled teens are notorious for their lack of discipline. In fact, their lack of discipline is likely the root cause of almost all of their issues. Furthermore, if troubled teens develop discipline, they will be able to overcome their shortcomings and change their live for the better.
Parents of troubled teens who are in desperate need of discipline have many options to choose from. These options include, therapeutic boarding schools for troubled teens, group homes, residential treatment centers and even boot camps for troubled teens. However, boot camps are considered ineffective and a "quick fix" that yields no long lasting changes.

Consequences
n. noun
con·se·quences
The Merriam- Webster dictionary provides the following definitions for consequences:
1.the effect, result, or outcome of something occurring earlier:
The accident was the consequence of reckless driving.
2.an act or instance of following something as an effect, result, or outcome.
Consequences is a prevalent issue in the life of a troubled teen. Troubled adolescents who suffer from negative consequences, do so because of their poor decision making. Whatever choice a teenage boy or girl decides to make, a consequence of that decision will soon follow. If a teen chooses to make productive choices in life, he/she will reap the benefits of positive consequences. However, if a teen makes poor choices such as, abuse drugs and alcohol, skipping class, hanging out with the wrong crowd or disobeying parents and authority, that teen will reap negative consequences. Negative consequences such as, legal troubles, being grounded from parents, or getting kicked out of school due to inactivity or rebelliousness, are all viable and likely negative consequences a teen will experience if he or she is making poor choices.

The ages of 17 - 26, are a time of finding oneself in a struggle to carve out a lifestyle of one's choosing.

is making sure that you are extremely clear and firm with your rules. There should never be any wiggle room in the regulations you set. Teens like to avoid trouble, so they will find any way to work around the wording you used and make it out to seem that they didn’t do anything wrong or break any regulations. The less room for interpretation there is, the more effective the rule will be. Once these kinds of regulations have been established, consistency of consequences is the next, most crucial part. If parents slip even once and let a teen out of their punishment, they will always remember this. From then on out, they are more likely to push the boundaries, because they believe they will be able to squeeze out of the punishment their mother and father have set.
