 Do you have a good memory? Do you have a good memory when it comes to your own shortcomings? Hi, I'm Mark Gregston with Parenting Today's Teens. When you discipline your child, it's important to remember your own teenage years. Think back to the time when you dented dad's car or stayed out too late with friends. You grew and learned through those experiences, didn't you? Well, now's the time to remember the life lessons and have grace with your own children.
