This groundbreaking book will give you the tools you need to stop unwittingly reinforcing your teen’s bad behavior, reduce conflicts, and get your teen on track with the things that really matter. If you have a teen who experiences extreme emotions, either as a result of a mental health diagnosis such as borderline personality disorder (BPD), or simply because you have a highly emotional teen, you probably need help right now.

Written by an expert in teen mental health, Parenting a Troubled Teen is based in proven-effective acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). In the book, you'll find the tools you need to parent your troubled teen, pay attention to your own reactions, and put an end to the cycle of conflict that has taken over your home. In this book, you’ll learn to observe the thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations that drive your own parenting behaviors, and how these behaviors can impact your teen. This is not a book about how to be a perfect parent. Everyone makes mistakes and reacts negatively to a situation from time to time. But if you’re committed to improving your relationship with your teen, helping them take charge of their emotions, and ending family conflict, this practical guide will show you how.

Book excerpt: A trans teen is transformed into a superhero in this action-packed series-starter perfect for fans of The Heroine Complex and Not Your Sidekick. Danny Tozer has a problem: she just inherited the powers of Dreadnought, the world’s greatest superhero. Until Dreadnought fell out of the sky and died right in front of her, Danny was trying to keep people from finding out she’s transgender. But before he expired, Dreadnought passed his mantle to her, and those secondhand superpowers transformed Danny’s body into what she’s always thought it should be. Now there’s no hiding that she’s a girl. It should be the happiest time of her life, but Danny’s first weeks finally living in a body that fits her are more difficult and complicated than she could have imagined. Between her father’s dangerous obsession with “curing” her girlhood, her best friend suddenly acting like he’s entitled to date her, and her fellow superheroes arguing over her place in their ranks, Danny feels like she’s in over her head. She doesn’t have time to adjust. Dreadnought’s murderer—a cyborg named Utopia—still haunts the streets of New Port City, threatening destruction. If Danny can’t sort through the confusion of coming out, master her powers, and stop Utopia in time, humanity faces extinction. “I didn’t know how much I needed this brave, thrilling book until it rocked my world. Dreadnought is the superhero adventure we all need right now.”—Charlie Jane Anders, author of All the Birds in the Sky “A thoroughly enjoyable, emotionally rich, action-packed story with the most exciting new superheroes in decades. Unmissable.”—Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book Raising IGen written by Karla Hawkins and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-27 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kids are soft these days. They lack resilience. They need to be more focused. Kids don't take any responsibility for themselves and their choices. They need to be more proactive and take charge of their lives. They all have ADHD. This endless list of complaints about all the things children and teens today are lacking, and how hard it makes parenting and teaching them makes me wonder when it all became the fault of the children. When did the adults relinquish all responsibility for how children are growing up these days? If there is a lack in their development, this falls squarely on the shoulders of the adults in their lives. This begs the question, what has gone wrong? What has gone wrong in our parenting and in our schools that has resulted in a rise in child and teen mental health issues? What are we failing to do for them to prepare them better for life? If there is such an immense and ever-growing mental health crisis amongst young people today, it says that something is wrong and not with the children themselves, but with how we are raising and educating them. What if we take a step back and take a long hard look at our education systems and parenting styles? And what if we try and understand children and emerging adults today and accept the fact that they are different, their own generation, with their own unique thoughts and values that don't fit into the mould left by previous generations? We can't truly establish social emotional education plans, curriculums and support programmes if we do not understand the children we are working with. While the mental health crisis grows amongst our teens and young adults, it is time to accept that we have spent way too long blaming everything and everyone else for this pressing issue. We are so busy putting out fires and sticking plasters on the emotional and developmental damage that our staid, narrow-minded approaches have caused. The only way to really fix the problem and to create a safe, happy, meaningful foundation for our teens and young adults is to approach them from a place of understanding, only then can we guide them to the point where they can flourish. How can we guide them towards their future if we are not even looking at the same map? While there are some tried and trusted approaches out there, that have worked for many years, I am not saying we need to throw them all out and return to the drawing board, I am saying let's look at them all through a new lens, take a new perspective and see what we can change to better suit teens and young adults today. We are trying to stick square pegs into round holes and expecting the pegs to change shape. Let's change the shape of the holes instead. We are failing to prepare them for their future lives because we don't understand them. When I sit and listen to parents and teachers lamenting all the many social emotional and developmental skills children today lack I honestly wonder how they can think children develop the skills they need and how they eventually become young adults if it is not for the role we play in this development. Meaningful change can only come from deep reflection and understanding. We need to make some serious changes to manage the ever-growing mental health crisis affecting our children and young adults today. It behooves us to support and guide this generation, as they are after all, our futures. And in order to do this, we need to approach them from a place of understanding- Who are Gen-Z and what makes them tick?

Download or read book Representing the Rainbow in Young Adult Literature written by Christine A. Jenkins and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discussions of gender and sexuality have become part of mainstream conversations and are being reflected in the work of more and more writers of fiction, particularly in literature aimed at young adult audiences. But young readers, regardless of their sexual orientation, don’t always know what books offer well-rounded portrayals of queer characters and situations. Fortunately, finding positive role models in fiction that features LGBTQ+ themes has become less problematic, though not without its challenges. In Representing the Rainbow in Young Adult Literature: LGBTQ+ Content since 1969, Christine Jenkins and Michael Cart provide an overview of the literary landscape. An expanded version of The Heart Has Its Reasons, this volume charts the evolution of YA literature that features characters and themes which resonate not only with LGBTQ+ readers but with their allies as well. In this resource, Jenkins and Cart identify titles that are notable either for their excellence—accurate, thoughtful, and tactful depictions—or deficiencies—books that are wrongheaded, stereotypical, or outdated. Each chapter has been significantly updated, and this edition also includes new chapters on bisexual, transgender, and intersex issues and characters, as well as chapters on comics, graphic novels, and works of nonfiction. This book also features an annotated bibliography and a number of author-title lists of books discussed in the text that will aid teachers, librarians, parents, and teen readers. Encompassing a wider array of sexual identities, Representing the Rainbow in Young Adult Literature is an invaluable resource for young people eager to read about books relevant to them and their lives.
