Summary It's not easy to be a teen girl, and it's definitely not easy parenting one. Parents everywhere struggle to respond appropriately to challenging behaviour, hit-or-miss communication, and fluctuating moods commonly exhibited by teenage girls. More than previous generations, today's teen girls face a daunting range of stressors that put them at risk for a range of serious issues, including self-harming behaviours, substance abuse, eating disorders, anxiety, and depression. Is it any wonder that parents are overwhelmed? Parenting a Teen Girl is a guide for busy parents who want bottom-line information and tips that make sense- and work. It also offers scripts to improve communication, and exercises to navigate stressful interactions with skill and compassion. Whether your teen girl is struggling with academic pressure, social difficulties, physical self-care, or technology overload, this book offers practical advice to help you connect with your teen girl. Parents and teens alike can enjoy a positive connection once common parent-teen pitfalls are replaced with solid understanding and strategies that work.
