A wife is under the authority of her husband just as a daughter living with her parents is under the authority of her parents. (Colossians 2:20; Ephesians 5:22-24; Titus 2:3-5) A rebellious teenager is wrong, even though a
teenager is a young adult from a Biblical perspective (this is not saying that
all teenagers are mature). However, the mother of a teenager should consider
how she would feel and respond if her husband treated her the way she treats her
teenage son or daughter.
