Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let me start this way, as I refer to Wikipedia for more information on this raging issue in contemporary families, that has almost turn most home to a battle zone! Yes, I am talking about the teens issue, and I am in no doubt that you are aware of this same challenge that is giving many parents sleepless night and to be frank with you, many of this young adults found in this age bracket are also having a running battle explaining what is going on within them... Now, I remember this same age group we readily call teens age ... is also known as Adolescence, a word derived from a Latin word, adolescence, which means "to grow up"; well, this same word is defined as a transitional stage of physical and psychological human development that generally occurs during the period from puberty to legal adulthood or the age of majority. The period of adolescence is most closely associated with the teenage years, though its physical, psychological and cultural expressions may begin earlier and end later. For example, although puberty has been historically associated with the onset of adolescent development, it now typically begins prior to the teenage years and there has been a normative shift of it occurring in preadolescence, particularly in females. Physical growth, as distinct from puberty (particularly in males), and cognitive development generally seen in adolescence, can also extend into the early twenties. Thus chronological age provides only a rough marker of adolescence, and scholars have found it difficult to agree upon a precise definition of adolescence. Well, that been as it may be, I have heard it many times without number how challenging it is to deal with or should I say handling the toddlers can be. But, I beg to say it here and now, that handling teenagers is even more challenging. Yes, just ask any parent who has had the benefit to raise them and you will agree with me. Fair enough, I know myself, because I am a parent too.... The fact is that the adolescent years are unsurprisingly a time of conflict for parents and teenagers. This is the period when children grow into a distinct person. Well, it is also true that during these important formative years, parents want to make sure their kids maintain the values they worked hard to instill, however, Parent have to be diplomatic about how they go implementing their ideas here! The reason is obvious, and cannot be overemphasized... teenagers at this stage naturally resist and argue in an attempt to assert their forming beliefs. In reality, when parents don't manage this phase properly, the bumpy interaction between parents and teenagers often creates a time of confusion in the family. However, in this book I will be exposing concrete tips that are guaranteed to help you in the challenge of parenting your teen(s) and have peaceful family with little or no rancor. Now is the time for you to get this expanded edition of the book that is loaded with all the parenting tips to help parents perform their God given roles in a way they will be happy with the result in years to come in the life of their teens today!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A parenting guide to adolescence - a sensible and considerate resource for navigating your teen to adulthood, transforming a traditional time of strife into an opportunity for positive growth for both you and your child. For parents, nurturing their teens to become healthy, well-adjusted adults seems more challenging now than ever before. There are many pressures for kids to grow up faster than they should. Here, renowned adolescent medicine specialist Kenneth Ginsburg, M.D., and award-winning journalist Susan FitzGerald offer parents a practical, thoughtful strategy for guiding children through all the turning points on the way to adulthood - the "whens" and "hows" of adolescence. Letting Go with Live and Confidence helps parents achieve five goals: Manage Their Own Emotions. Many parents are conflicted about their teens growing up. The desire to keep things the way they've always been may get in the way of wise parental decisions. This book addresses the emotional turmoil that surrounds letting go, and urges parents to care for themselves, so they can better care for their children. Reduce Conflict Around the Whens. It's the everyday "When can I?" questions that trigger many struggles. Parents will learn to turn potential sources of conflict into opportunities for growth as they consider 18 scenarios, including When is my child ready to stay home alone? Get a cell phone? Manage money? Date? Drive? Minimize Anxiety Over the Hows. Certain subjects are tough to talk about and the stakes in these conversations are high. How in the world do you talk about sex? Drugs? Peer pressure? Parents will learn how to approach critical topics with honesty and clarity, increasing the chances that they'll actually be heard. Gain Confidence To Make the Right Decisions. Parents reading this book will be better prepared to make decisions because they'll have a strategy to apply to each situation and gain new insight into their child's developmental needs. Understand That Nurturing Independence Is An Act of Love. The ultimate goal of parenting is to produce a well-adjusted adult. When teens understand that their parents support their independence, they're less likely to rebel. As importantly, when independence is not a battle, families can move toward lifelong interdependence. Letting Go with Live and Confidence is filled with the latest findings on successful parenting and is infused with Dr. Ginsburg's expert advice on how to build resilience in teens. This comprehensive volume also contains stories from real parents from diverse backgrounds who have faced the challenges of raising teens. Empowering and groundbreaking, this book is a one-stop resource to parenting teens in the twenty-first century.

This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #STRESS: Parenting Teens With Love And Logic: Connecting With Your Teens In Establishing Safe Boundaries In Our Cyber World Have you ever wanted to pull out your hair over a parenting problem that seemed to require a difficult solution (if there was a solution to be had at all)? Have you ever experienced being torn between wanting to hug or discipline your own child because of something they did or said? As a parent, you might have experienced more than your fair share of bewilderment at how to raise your own children so that they turn out to be decent human beings who will be great contributors to society. And if history does repeat itself, then these feelings are or were probably particularly frequent during your child's adolescent period. With pimples sprouting everywhere, strange odors and excretions being expelled by the body, and a looming sense of confusion and frustration about one's identity, adolescence is a turbulent, sometimes traumatic time for many people. It's especially frustrating and confounding for two sets of people in particular: the adolescents themselves and their parents. And although parents were once teenagers themselves, it can be quite tough for them to remember what it was like to be awkward, moody, and confused all the time. Thus, it's common for a lot of parents and teenagers to butt heads over this lack of mutual understanding (as well as due to the crazy hormonal changes taking place in the teenager's body every minute). What's more, being a parent to a teenager in the 21st century is made all the more challenging by the widespread presence of the Internet in their child's life. For in addition to guiding their adolescent child towards navigating the tricky stage of puberty in order to become a well-adjusted person, 21st century parents also have to contend with the dangers posed by cyberspace such as the presence of pedophile predators, the apparent decline of manners and social graces, as well as plain old peer pressure and bad influences being played out on a much wider space. Thus, this book was written to guide said parents in the process of handling the aforementioned challenges of raising children in the modern age. This book's focus is all about balancing love and logic so that parents can enable their kids to conduct themselves responsibly in cyberspace, and so that they would be able to construct the necessary boundaries therein to protect themselves. Here Is A Preview Of What You Will Learn What sort of support your adolescent needs from you at this stage in his or her life, and how this differs from their needs at prior developmental stages. How to set up effective communication patterns with your teenager so that he or she will feel more open towards sharing about his or her life with you. How to prepare your child for the perils and responsibilities of using social media accounts online. What to do in case you run into familiar 21st century parenting dilemmas such as catching your teenager viewing online pornography or sending compromising photos of themselves to strangers. And much, much more! Anyone, regardless of past or present can succeed at using love and logic to raise their teenager – Today! Get Your Copy Today!
