Are you unsure of how to parent your not-so-little son or daughter now that they’ve reached their teenage years?

Are you unsure of how to discipline your teenager now that timeouts no longer hold the same weight?

As parents, your number one goal is to prepare your children to leave the nest and flourish on their own. And let’s face it – you only have a few more years to teach your teen everything they need to know before they take on the world as young adults.
However, in one recent study, 25% of parents admitted they were their teen's main barrier to “launching” and moving out because they did not take the time or effort to give their teens more independence during those crucial teenage years.
Don’t be a part of this statistic. Discover what you need to know about parenting now for your teen to have success later.

And so much more.
Parenting is one of the most rewarding jobs – hugs for no reason, the occasional drive-by “thank you” or “I love you,” the light in their eyes when they see you show up to an event they are a part of.
But it is also the hardest job you’ll ever have – long hours, no pay, and little recognition for your efforts. And sometimes, those hard moments can overshadow the good, especially when your children reach their teenage years.
Find ways to not only survive their teenage years but to have your relationship with them thrive as they enter this next stage of their lives.

Surviving teenagers through guidance and self care!
I was impressed at the very beginning of the book because of the simplistic and and clear language describing teen behaviors. It starts off with a wonderful comparison of the toddler years and the teenage years. Toddlers seek Independence and have to be safe, by their parents. Teenagers seek Independence and also to be safe by their parents through different skills of the parents. This book highlights the skills that you need to successfully parent teens and care for yourself in the process.

When I met my now-husband, he had two teenagers. One was already in high school, the other was in 8th grade, getting ready to start high school. My husband and his ex had been dealing with a very contemptuous split, and his ex was extremely adversarial. At first, his kids were great, even though his younger one had to switch school districts and start high school without knowing a soul in his new school. For the first year of our relationship, his ex had been completely absent from the kids’ lives, only communicating with my husband through harassing text messages and voicemails. The divorce was finalized, my husband got full custody because his ex was glaringly absent. Eventually, however, the kids’ mother wormed her way back into their lives, making the relationship between my husband and his youngest child painfully volatile. Things got worse and worse between the two until Husband’s son violently attacked him, had the police called, and the court system decided the child should live with his mom (who was effectively homeless, so it was baffling).
I start this review by telling this story because I believe if my husband had taken the time to read a book like this, his relationship with his youngest child might not have gone as far south as it did. There are some tips on how to navigate difficult interactions that my husband really could have benefitted from. While I do find myself concerned that the author doesn’t have any type of child psychology or child development credentials, it does appear as though it was researched effectively, and the author includes adequate citations.
This book does contain really good strategies, and it’s not very long, so it’s not an overwhelming tome of information. It’s short, concise, and to the point.

This author had a lot of good ideas, although a few things I did disagree with. For the most part it has given me something’s I will try with my children to build better relationships.
