TikTok mom Aly Pain with 550k followers shares her top tips for parents of teens and tweens—from setting proper boundaries to understanding brain development. 

"Every time you sacrifice your needs for the sake of your teenagers beyond regular parental sacrifice you teach your teenager that their needs are more important than yours and it creates entitlement. Setting healthy boundaries models respect and equality as humans even though you're an authority as a parent," explains Aly. "Using healthy, respectful boundaries helps them make better decisions and builds confidence, so ultimately it helps them avoid the necessity for further consequences or discipline."
