We aren't always available to give our full attention, to actively listen. Neither teenagers nor adults. It can be a good idea to ask if they're available, express your interest in having a good conversation, and agree on a time that might be convenient.
Mother and teenage daughter
In my case, I try to listen to her and understand how she thinks, to know her feelings, doubts, fears, and emotions. Without intending to talk (Mother of a teenager).
If he doesn't want to listen, he won't no matter what you do, so I would leave it at that moment, but later, if he encounters something he doesn't like, react in the same way he does to make him understand how you feel, and from there, if you can talk at another time, perfect (Teenage daughter).
