Book excerpt: PARENTING NEVER ENDS. From the founders of the #1 site for parents of teens and young adults comes an essential guide for building strong relationships with your teens and preparing them to successfully launch into adulthood The high school and college years: an extended roller coaster of academics, friends, first loves, first break-ups, driver’s ed, jobs, and everything in between. Kids are constantly changing and how we parent them must change, too. But how do we stay close as a family as our lives move apart? Enter the co-founders of Grown and Flown, Lisa Heffernan and Mary Dell Harrington. In the midst of guiding their own kids through this transition, they launched what has become the largest website and online community for parents of fifteen to twenty-five year olds. Now they’ve compiled new takeaways and fresh insights from all that they’ve learned into this handy, must-have guide. Grown and Flown is a one-stop resource for parenting teenagers, leading up to—and through—high school and those first years of independence. It covers everything from the monumental (how to let your kids go) to the mundane (how to shop for a dorm room). Organized by topic—such as academics, anxiety and mental health, college life—it features a combination of stories, advice from professionals, and practical sidebars. Consider this your parenting lifeline: an easy-to-use manual that offers support and perspective. Grown and Flown is required reading for anyone looking to raise an adult with whom you have an enduring, profound connection.

When those accidents involve young or inexperienced drivers, the task is especially agonizing. With an emphasis upon driver safety, this very comprehensive book is an excellent resource for teenagers and parents alike, and I highly recommend it!" Daniel Carlson - Captain, Assistant Director of Training, New York State Police, Ret. Rich, thanks for letting me review your book. It's obvious you put a lot of effort into it, drawing on your unique experiences. I especially liked your personal stories and all of your common sense, practical advice! You have provided an informative life-saving guide for everyone hoping to avoid a motor vehicle accident. I am confident you will make better, more thoughtful drivers with your insights. Each of my own grandchildren will be receiving a copy of this book as they prepare to get behind the wheel and hit the road. Excellent job! Lars Jarvie - Chief of Police, City of Mesa, Arizona, Ret. Richard Kasper has developed a common-sense guide for those who don't always use a great deal of common sense. I wish that this book existed when my sons were learning to drive. Nicely done! Ben Wolfinger - Sheriff, Kootenai County, Idaho Great information even for me, an old retired cop of 34 years. Having raised five children and worked with youth in Boy Scouts and church activities, I can attest that, while they are wonderful people, teenagers act like teenagers. The information in this book may save a teen's life. Thanks for writing this, Rich. I will share it with my kids. Gordon H. Gartner - Chief of Police, Town of Payson, Arizona, Ret.

This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IF YOU DRIVE A VEHICLE, YOU NEED THIS BOOK! Here's the deal. We have a huge problem and it must be corrected immediately! From 2000 to 2018, we have had 768,828 people killed in United States in auto accidents (from National Safety Council's Accident Facts)! The past three years (2016""2018), we have had over 40,000 fatalities each year! These are the most in the past nine years, which tells me our training system is not working! This is UNACCEPTABLE! If you drive a vehicle, you need to go through this training! It will be one of the most important books you will ever read! How many of these people would have said they were good drivers? Yes, almost all of them! Fact: 25 percent of all fatal auto accidents are DUI accidents. The other 75 percent of the fatal accidents I classify as sober-related accidents! A problem this book will address in simple detail. Fact: The only way you would attend a driver safety course is by receiving a citation; you attend the class and say, "This was a great refresher. I'm glad I took it." This is not a refresher but a survival course! The solution to preventing these staggering statistics is retraining the 210 million drivers on the road with a fundamental, focus-concept training with accident situations. This training is intended to make you a proactive driver versus a reactive driver! Being reactive, most of the time, is too late! I have done much research and developed simple analogies, concepts, and accident-possibility situations that will change your mindset and driving behavior every time you get behind the wheel. Driving Institute of America (DIA) wants to make you a DIA-Certified Teen Driver versus just a teen driver! There is a huge difference! Your life is worth a whole lot more than the cost of this book! You will understand that every time you get behind the wheel, YOU ARE ENTERING THE MOST DANGEROUS PLACE IN THE WORLD""THE PUBLIC HIGHWAYS! Never forget this! 100 PERCENT FOCUS AND SAFE DRIVING! "You saved my life three different ways!" ""Dee D., Austin, TX "I've been a driver for over thirty years and this training taught me some life-saving skills!" ""Matt T., Leander, TX "I definitely think everyone who drives a vehicle absolutely needs this training!" ""Tom J., Cedar Park, TX "It definitely made our teen more responsible by completing all the certifications. It was an eye opener!" ""Shorouk N., Austin, TX "Thank you, this information has helped me so much and it made me more attentive to my own driving habits." ""Deni H., Austin, TX "Yes, I believe everyone who completes this training will be a much more knowledgeable and safer driver." ""Karen E., Spokane, WA

Book excerpt: Teaching Your Teenager To Drive Carefully And Safely - Expert Tips And Advice For Parents And Teenage Boys And Girls For most teenagers, knowing how to drive is the first significant step towards freedom, adulthood, and independence. But make no mistake because the very first year or two of driving are also among the most dangerous times of your teenager's life. So, how can you as a parent prepare your teenage boy or girl to be safe, good drivers and keep them that way? The good news is - there are detailed, proven steps parents can take to get the best results they want. Motor vehicle accidents are the top cause of death for U.S. teens, and car crashes are the leading cause of death for teens between the ages of 16-19-year-olds. In 2017, six teens died every day, and hundreds more suffered injuries in car crashes. This is against drivers 20 years and above, the risk of being involved in a fatal accident is three times as great for teens who are 16-19, and new drivers have a crash rate 1.5 times higher than drivers who are 18 and 19 years old. It's gut-wrenching, shocking that the problem is still this big; 16 and 17-year-olds are far over-represented in fatal car crashes, more so than any other age group. However, crash data reveals that one of the three main reasons for teen car crashes include speeding, drinking and driving, and distraction. I know that the statistics are sobering; however, parents hold the keys to helping their teenagers beat these odds and teaching them how best to drive to avert many impending dooms. It requires sticking to what this book represents to keep teenagers safe before, during, and after learning to drive. So, if you are interested in teaching your kids to be a good driver to help sharpen their driving knowledge skills and mitigate the number of car accidents on our roads, then get a COPY of this BOOK today.

Download or read book A Parent s Survival Guide for Your Teenage Driver written by Thomas Hund and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-12-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driving a motor vehicle is probably the most dangerous activity in which your child will participate. While most states require formal driver education in school (or driving school) for teenagers, the majority require no more than six hours of behind-the-wheel training. Many states require a minimum of fifty hours of behind-the-wheel instruction by parent or guardian. So you, the parent, will probably be the biggest influence on preparing your child to become a safe driver. In this book you will be introduced to the IPDE system which is an organized method for you and your teenage driver to learn how to become an experienced defensive driver. Not only did this system help me behind the wheel with my students, it also helped me become a much safer driver in my own vehicle. In my twenty-one years of teaching driver education at Wesclin High School, I instructed about 1,500 students behind the wheel. I hope by sharing some of these experiences I can help you help your child prepare for a lifetime of safe driving habits.
