The holidays mean more family time, but, developmentally, teens are often pulling away from their parents — which means wrangling them for the holidays can be tough.

It's developmentally normal for teens to pull away from their families and be more interested in time with friends. But it's okay to make family time more obligatory than usual during the holidays. These strategies can help keep your teens interested in family time during the holiday season.Seth Wenig/AP Images

Ask your teens for input. Encourage them to share their ideas about how they'd like to spend the holiday season. Incorporate some of their ideas into your holiday season, and they'll likely be more invested in family time.Hero Images/Getty Images Whether this means allowing your teen to bring a friend to a family activity or leave an event a little early, help make time for some of your child's favorite activities.Your teens will tolerate family time better when they have some control over their situation. Allow them freedom over small things and they'll be more cooperative with the big things.

Saying,"I expect you to keep your phone on silent and out of sight during the party" might prevent an argument at the event. Similarly, saying"I expect you to show up for at least two hours" could prevent a lot of confusion and frustration down the road.
