<human>:  How can I effectively deal with my teenager's emotional outbursts?
<bot>: One effective way to handle your teenager's emotional outbursts is to stay calm and try to listen to what they are expressing. Ask open-ended questions that allow them to explain the underlying emotion behind the outburst. Acknowledging their feelings can help them to feel heard and understood. If necessary, you can also set clear boundaries, while still being supportive and understanding. If the situation allows it, provide some space and allow your teenager time to cool down. Talking together after emotions have calmed can help to work through the issue.
