Download or read book 53 Teen Tips written by David Bettge and published by David Bettge. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 53 Teen Tips contains short but yet practical ideas for teenagers. These tips will not only assist in surviving the potentially volatile teenage years, but help them thrive and prepare for the real world as an adult. Topics include: Positive Thinking, Happiness and Relationships, Fear and Guilt, Money and Success, Self Respect, Friends, and much more. I had a really good time writing this book. All of the topics are the little things I've discussed with my own kids when dealing with issues. I'm no doctor, psychiatrist, counselor, or self-help guru. I'm just a dad who wants to share what I've learned. I've personally lived life on both sides of the spectrum. In what seems like a different lifetime, I've been down and out, miserable, depressed, financially broke, spiritually bankrupt, and struggled with addictions. I spent well over a decade of my life wondering if my suffering would ever end. Things are much different today and have been for quite some time. Coming to understand many of the ideas in this book was key for the shift that took place in my own life. There is little doubt in my mind that if a kid can master a majority of the ideas talked about in this book; they'll be on their way to living the fruitful and satisfying life we all desire. This was my motivation behind this writing.

And parents, Dr. Leman says, are the ones who can make all the difference, because they count far more in their teenager's life than they'll ever know . . . even if their teenager won't admit it (at least until she's in college and wants to know how to do the laundry).

Book excerpt: If your teenager shows signs of having an eating disorder, you may hope that, with the right mix of love, encouragement, and parental authority, he or she will just "snap out of it."
