Tips and Tricks to Make Quarantine Easier for Your Teen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pandemic or not, it is possible for both teenagers and adults to have long-distance love relationships.<\/strong> It\u2019s recommended that, as a parent, you discuss the situation with your teen to find solutions and give advice. The absence of the other person is often the most difficult thing to deal with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other cases, your teen may be missing the affection and attentiveness that only a significant other can give. Meaningful clothing or objects belonging to your teen’s significant other (if he or she already has them at home) can help soothe the emptiness left by the other’s absence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For others, these objects are simply a reminder of the absence of their loved one. It may be helpful to suggest that your teen put these items away until they feel the need to see them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This period of distancing is not all bad<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is a 100% reliable method of protection against sexually transmitted infections if it is followed properly (this is not the time to exchange fluids, as the Premier of Quebec said!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insist that your daughter continue to take birth control pills (if she was already taking them) throughout the lockdown. It will be important for your teen to have condoms in their possession on the day the lockdown is over, if the relationship has reached that point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As with any time of year, we suggest caution when sharing revealing photos and videos\u2026 Long before the pandemic, we saw many young people being bullied after sharing photos, which were then used by people with bad intentions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does your teen want to communicate with their significant other?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The easiest way is through video chat. It\u2019s a meaningful means of communication where the non-verbal (facial expressions, gestures) is clearly visible, which reinforces the feeling of closeness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also talk to your teen about writing emails, virtual love letters, or even writing real letters on paper… Writing your feelings often feels good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A creative tip would be to encourage your teen to keep a diary of this unique event (note activities done over the days, describe thoughts and feelings, explain positive or difficult events).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will certainly be very interesting to look back on in a few years. Your teenager may be surprised to see, in retrospect, how bold they were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trucs et astuces pour faciliter le confinement de votre adolescent<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pand\u00e9mie ou pas, il est possible tant pour les adolescents que pour les adultes de vivre une relation amoureuse \u00e0 distance. <\/strong>Il est recommand\u00e9, en tant que parent, de discuter de la situation avec votre jeune pour trouver des solutions et donner des conseils. L\u2019absence de l\u2019autre est souvent ce qu\u2019il y a de plus difficile \u00e0 g\u00e9rer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dans d\u2019autres cas, c\u2019est l\u2019affection et l\u2019\u00e9coute que seul un amoureux peut donner qui manque \u00e0 votre adolescent. Des v\u00eatements ou des objets significatifs appartenant \u00e0 l'amoureux de votre jeune (s'il en a d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e0 la maison) peut l'aider \u00e0 apaiser le vide laiss\u00e9 par l\u2019absence de l\u2019autre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour d\u2019autres, ces objets ne font que rappeler l\u2019absence de l\u2019\u00eatre aim\u00e9. Il peut alors \u00eatre aidant de sugg\u00e9rer \u00e0 votre adolescent de ranger ces objets jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce qu\u2019il ressente le besoin de les revoir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cette p\u00e9riode de distanciation n\u2019a pas que du n\u00e9gatif<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Elle est une m\u00e9thode de protection 100% fiable contre les infections transmissibles sexuellement si on la respecte bien (ce n\u2019est pas le temps d\u2019\u00e9changer des fluides, comme l\u2019a dit le premier ministre du Qu\u00e9bec !).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insistez aupr\u00e8s de votre fille pour qu\u2019elle continue de prendre la pilule contraceptive (si elle en prenait d\u00e9j\u00e0 une) pendant toute la dur\u00e9e du confinement. Il sera important que votre adolescent ait des condoms en sa possession le jour o\u00f9 le confinement sera termin\u00e9, si la relation en est l\u00e0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comme \u00e0 tout moment de l\u2019ann\u00e9e, nous sugg\u00e9rons de faire preuve de prudence dans les \u00e9changes de photos et de vid\u00e9os trop r\u00e9v\u00e9latrices... Bien avant la pand\u00e9mie, nous avons vu plusieurs jeunes subir de l\u2019intimidation apr\u00e8s avoir partag\u00e9 des photos, qui ont par la suite \u00e9t\u00e9 utilis\u00e9es par de personnes avec de mauvaises intentions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Votre adolescent a envie de communiquer avec son amoureux ou son amoureuse?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Les moyens les plus faciles sont les \u00e9changes par vid\u00e9o\/chat. Il s\u2019agit d\u2019un moyen de communication riche o\u00f9 le non-verbal (les expressions du visage, la gestuelle) est bien visible, ce qui renforce le sentiment de proximit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vous pouvez aussi soumettre \u00e0 votre jeune l\u2019id\u00e9e d\u2019\u00e9crire des courriels, des lettres d\u2019amour virtuelles, ou m\u00eame d\u2019\u00e9crire de vraies lettres sur papier... \u00c9crire ses sentiments fait souvent du bien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une astuce originale consisterait \u00e0 encourager votre enfant \u00e0 tenir un journal intime de cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement unique (noter les activit\u00e9s faites au fil des jours, d\u00e9crire les pens\u00e9es et les sentiments, expliquer les \u00e9v\u00e8nements positifs ou difficiles).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il sera certainement tr\u00e8s int\u00e9ressant de s\u2019y replonger dans quelques ann\u00e9es. Votre jeune risque d\u2019\u00eatre surpris de constater, en r\u00e9trospective, \u00e0 quel point il a \u00e9t\u00e9 courageux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
