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.

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.
Download or read book True Love Lasts written by James Wegert and published by . This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a school counselor who partially messed up his own life and who has seen many others mess up their lives by making bad relationship choices, True Love Lasts communicates in a down-to-earth manner important information about healthy relationships that teens and young adults need to know - with the goal of helping to significantly reduce the number of broken hearts and the divorce rate in our society. Wegert suggests a strong approach to dating as an alternative to the devastating weak approach to dating that's constantly being promoted by the media and our popular culture. This book is very similar to the books Straight Talk About Teen Dating and Straight Talk About Dating except that it has a character emphasis instead of a Christian emphasis. From the author Dear prospective reader, This book was written in order to communicate crucial information that can help people to maximize the possibility that one day they'll find true love and have a lifelong loving marriage. Here's some of the main points that I explain in detail in the book: 1. Many teens and young adults start dating before they're ready and use the disastrous weak approach to dating in which dating choices are made mainly based upon liking someone, feelings, and looks. Unfortunately, this approach usually leads to a broken heart 2. A good amount of time and effort needs to be put into preparing yourself for a healthy relationship 3. If you prepare yourself for a healthy relationship by learning when, who, and how to date - you're more likely to make good dating choices and have a lifelong loving marriage 4. It's important that you become a strong person (a keeper) before you start dating and that you only date another strong person 5. If at all possible, you should try to find a way to get to know someone before dating and you should be very selective about who you decide to date 6. Dating should be a slow process in which you carefully discover what the person you're dating is really like - and whether or not he or she possibly is the person that you want to be married to for the rest of your life 7. Many people don't realize that getting the feeling of being "in love" is relatively easy - especially during dating 8. Having the feeling of being "in love" makes people ignore danger signs and serious problems in their significant other - problems that could destroy a healthy relationship 9. True love is much more than just having the feeling of being "in love" - it's supposed to be a mutual lifelong commitment 10. Having the feeling of being "in love" and having true love aren't good enough reasons alone to get married 11. Way too many people decide to get married without going through a careful marriage decision making process and they end up getting married too quickly for the wrong reasons - often with unhappiness and divorce as the result 12. Marrying a person who isn't a hard worker almost always is a big mistake 13. The first step toward finding a person with whom you could eventually have a lifelong loving marriage is to become the type of person that you want to date - a strong person I hope that you decide to read the book!

Download or read book Angst of Adolescence written by Sara Villanueva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being a good parent is one of the most difficult, yet most rewarding, jobs a person can have in his or her lifetime. Being the parent of a teen is an especially daunting phase of the journey. As parents begin to notice the significant changes that come with adolescence (physical changes brought about by puberty, the constant angst and moodiness, and of course the classic eye-rolling and the I-know-it-all attitude), they wonder just what happened to their happy, sweet, and affectionate young boy or girl. Parents sit by amazed--and often lost and unprepared--as they witness their child morph and mutate into a full-blown pubescent display of emotions. The Angst of Adolescence: How to Parent Your Teen and Live to Laugh About It, written in a conversational, informative, humorous and relatable style, promises to deliver trustworthy resource for parents of teens who are searching for answers and guidance about how to maneuver their way through this tricky developmental period. Dr. Sara Villanueva, a prominent psychologist specializing in the adolescent years, shares relevant research findings so that parents can be informed of the facts as opposed to making assumptions based on ubiquitous but questionable sources. Most of all it will provide parents of teenagers with perspective in the midst of angst so they can come away with the sense that: * They are not alone in their experience of raising teens; many, many people have gone through it and we can all relate to and learn from one another. * Most of what your teen is feeling and expressing is normal and falls within the expected range of behavior for adolescent development. * Despite the challenges involved in parenting teens, we should take time to focus on the positive things in life and live with our child through the tough adolescent years so that we emerge on the other side with friendship and a deeper bond. As a psychologist and mother of four, the author shares both research-based and first-hand advice on how to navigate the teen years and live to laugh about it.

There's only one problem: when Ameen gets mad, sometimes he takes his anger out on me. And yeah, maybe I could leave him, but there's no way Ameen could imagine being without me. So now I'm all confused, especially since my first love, Malachi, is back in my life. Ameen is not giving up without a fight, and no matter how hard I try, the love I have for Malachi won't go away. And did I mention that Malachi has a girl? Needless to say, my days are filled with drama. So this is my story and you need to come and chill with me as I try and see what boy is for me, what love is all about, and if my first teenage love affair will forever rule or ruin my life.

Download or read book But I Love Him written by Jill Murray and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One in three girls will be in a controlling, abusive dating relationship before she graduates from high school – from verbal or emotional abuse to sexual abuse or physical battering. Is your daughter in danger? Dr. Jill Murray speaks on the topic of dating violence at high schools around the country, reaching more than 10,000 students, teachers, and counsellors each year. In every school she visits, she is approached by teenage girls in miserable relationships who, when confronted with the option of breaking up with the boy, exclaim, "But I love him!" Many young women – and their parents, aren't even aware of the indications of a potentially abusive relationship. What's most alarming is that these warning signs are also some of the behaviours that girls find most flattering: A boy pages and calls a girl often – but as a form of control, not affection. He wants to spend all his time with her, but eventually won't allow her to spend time with her friends. He says "I love you" very early in the relationship. These behaviours can escalate into blaming, isolating, manipulating, threatening, humiliation, and sexual and physical abuse. In But I Love Him, Dr. Murray identifies these controlling, abusive patterns of behaviour and helps you get your daughter out of the relationship without alienating her. You will learn what draws her to this type of relationship, why she has a hard time talking to you about it, the special barriers teens face when breaking off a relationship, and what's going on in the mind of a teen abuser. Dr. Murray will help you show your teen what a respectful relationship looks like, and teach her the importance of respecting herself. edition.
