Lesson Overview

1.57 – Preventing Violence When Your Teen Is Bigger Than You: Physical size changes power dynamics, but preparation preserves authority. Prioritize spatial awareness: never block exits or corners. Use calm, assertive statements and slow movements. Keep distance to reduce impulsive contact. Arrange furniture for unobstructed escape routes. Train yourself in non-violent crisis techniques through community workshops. When tension rises, disengage verbally, not physically. Seek police or crisis-team support early rather than later. After incidents, collaborate on structure and therapy emphasizing mutual safety. Reinforce that strength should protect, not intimidate. Leadership comes from composure, not competition. Your steadiness teaches that respect doesn’t depend on size, only on the consistency of calm boundaries.
