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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At last, a book of sage advice that will help frustrated parents reconnect with their teenager and keep that connection even in today's often-crazy world.The first step is simple: realizing that inside every teen resides two very different people-the regressed child and the emergent adult. The emergent adult is seen at school, on the playing field, in his first job, and in front of his friends' families. Unfortunately, his parents usually see only the regressed child-moody and defiant-and, if they're not on the lookout, they'll miss seeing the more agreeable, increasingly adult thinker in their midst.With ingenious strategies for coaxing the more attractive of the two teen personalities into the home, family psychologist Mike Riera gives new hope to beleaguered and harried parents. From moving from a "managing" to a "consulting" role in a teen's life, from working with a teen's uniquely exasperating sleep rhythms to having real conversations when only monosyllables have been previously possible, Staying Connected to Your Teenager demonstrates ways to bring out the best in a teen-and, consequently, in an entire family.

When it comes to your teen, do you feel like you’re walking on eggshells? Do they lash out at you when you try to set limits, or stomp off to their room and slam the door at the slightest criticism? Welcome to the teen years! Emotions and hormones are running high, everything feels like a crisis, and you’re lucky if you can get through the day without a fight. So, how can you stay connected, set limits, and keep the peace? Grounded in cutting-edge polyvagal theory, Staying Connected with Your Teen shines a light on why teens are so easily triggered, and offers nerve-calming strategies to minimize reactivity, nurture a stronger connection, and help you lovingly guide your teen on the path to adulthood. You’ll also find skills to help you meet your teen where they are developmentally, and discover ways you can help them feel safe and loved—even when you are having disagreements. Trust is at the heart of the bond between parents and teens. This book will help you strengthen that trust and create a peaceful atmosphere where expectations are better communicated.

Book excerpt: A guide for families to thrive in the midst of the tumultuous teen years--and the culmination of the author's twenty-five years of experience in both conventional psychology and alternative methods In her decades of practice and academic research, Dr. Christa Santangelo, a psychologist and assistant clinical professor at the University of California-San Francisco, has seen many relationships devastated by the emotional hurricane that teenagers can inflict on a family. Yet Dr. Santangelo also understands how that conflict can be resolved and a new way forward mapped together between parents and teen. In A New Theory of Teenagers, she gives parents the advice, tips, support, and big-picture overview needed to see the teen years as an opportunities for growth and positive relationship changes. With counterintuitive steps (such as "Endure Emotions"), she offers hope and empowerment. Dr. Santangelo asserts that parents have a far greater impact on conflict with their teen than they may realize, metaphorically handing parents back the power to shift the situation to harmony. And, Dr. Santangelo does it with a fresh and multi-dimensional approach to the parent-teen relationship by integrating conventional psychology with alternative methods including yoga and meditation-intended to work on building trust, sitting with and understanding emotions, and seeing room for positivity in the midst of it all.

This book was released on with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a parent of a teenager, I know firsthand the challenges that come with parenting a teen. It can be difficult to navigate the changing dynamics of our relationship with our children, as they begin to assert their independence and push back against our authority. But I also know that parenting a teenager can be incredibly rewarding, as we watch them grow into confident, capable young adults. And that's why I wrote "Positive Parenting for Teens: Empowering Your Teen to Thrive and Succeed." This book is a comprehensive guide to positive parenting for teens, designed to help parents like me navigate the ups and downs of raising a teenager. It covers everything from building a positive relationship with your teen to setting boundaries and consequences, and from supporting your teen's emotional health to preparing them for independence and adulthood. Throughout the book, I draw on my own experiences as a parent, as well as the latest research in adolescent development and positive psychology. I also share stories and insights from other parents and teens, offering a diverse range of perspectives on the challenges and joys of parenting a teenager. One of the key themes of the book is the importance of positive communication with your teen. As they begin to assert their independence, it can be easy to fall into patterns of conflict and negativity. But by using positive communication strategies, like active listening and empathy, we can build a stronger, more trusting relationship with our teen. Another important aspect of positive parenting for teens is setting clear boundaries and consequences. This can be challenging, as we want to give our teens the freedom to make their own choices and learn from their mistakes. But by establishing clear rules and consequences, we can help our teens develop a sense of responsibility and accountability, while also keeping them safe and healthy. In addition to these core themes, the book covers a wide range of topics related to parenting a teenager. This includes supporting your teen's academic success, navigating social challenges like peer pressure and bullying, and dealing with special circumstances like mental health challenges and disabilities. Throughout the book, I provide practical tips and strategies for applying positive parenting principles in real-life situations. I also include exercises and activities to help parents and teens work together to build stronger relationships and foster greater independence and responsibility. Ultimately, my goal with "Positive Parenting for Teens" is to empower parents to raise confident, capable, and resilient young adults. Parenting a teenager can be challenging, but it can also be incredibly rewarding. With the right strategies and mindset, we can help our teens thrive and succeed, both now and in the years to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The teen years are hard enough. But with today's increased pressures to produce at school, stay in step with being cool, and manage a jam-packed schedule, it's no wonder many teens are overwhelmed. The result is a generation experiencing greater stress and feeling more depressed than any other. This book will inspire and equip parents to help their hurting teens. The well-known and widely respected author team of Dr. Catherine Hart Weber and Dr. Arch Hart help parents discover and identify nervousness, irritability, negativity, and low self-esteem, and determine whether their teen's symptoms are caused by physical problems, raging hormones, stress, or depression. Offering practical suggestions, spiritual solutions, and encouragement, this resource helps parents and teens face their own feelings of fear, anger, and hurt. Is Your Teen Stressed or Depressed? will help parents determine whether their child is simply acting like a hormone-raging teenager, or is actually suffereing from too much stress or even depression.
