Discuss Debbie's answer to: What to do about adolescent talking back to parents?

You could totally ground them. Or if that doesn't work, take things away that are important to them. Perhaps if it's a girl, take her makeup. You say "Oh that's mean" She'll stop talking back that's for sure. Or a boy take his video game system. Or For either, take the door to their room right off the hinges...I'm just getting started. :)
