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.

Teenage years are the most difficult and puzzling years for both the teenager and his or her parent. This is when children begin to develop their own identity, seek individualism and veer away from their parents. They can be rebellious, defy norms and traditions, and stay cooped up in their rooms for days on end. Everything the parent says is anathema to them. So, whether you are a parent or a teenager, how do you deal with this turbulent and challenging phase? In Drama Teen, Lina Ashar explores concepts from both sides of the fence. Helicopter parenting, parent–teen conflicts and ways to resolve them, and the habits that lead to a successful life are among the topics discussed here. She also explores ways to minimize the pain and trauma the ‘drama-teen’ phase can cause both to the teens and their parents. Packed with practical advice, tips, what-not-to-dos and activities, Ashar expertly guides you to keep your cool through those complicated years.

This is a book for all parents. It serves as a complete guide for long-term positive parenting of teenagers or even younger children. It is written for parents as users in everyday situations from the perspective of their teenagers' needs. In the book, you will find very practical parenting tips for when you don't know how to deal with teenagers, how to make kids listen, how to motivate teens, how to renew broken bonds etc. You will learn about your part of responsibility in your relationship, and how to gain parental power. The second part guides you through typical everyday examples, and simple innovative parental tips on how to keep the connection with your teenager and create responses so that you can support the safe and healthy development of your child. It can serve as your personalized book with your own important notes. We wrote the book thinking about, and remembering, all the people we had met at our consultations, who had struggled with how to deal with problems with their teens. The book is for everyone who, at a certain point in their life, felt like: -they aren't equipped with appropriate experience; -they grew up in different times or cultural situations and aren't sure how to adjust (most of us did); -they stopped participating actively and thoughtfully in parenting, because they were excluded from, or encountered, disagreements in their partnership; -giving up because of feeling powerless; -they have no support from their partner; -they don't know what to do, because they had already used up all their ideas. However, this book can also be useful for: -single parents; -teachers who haven't necessarily had experience with their own teens; -parents of younger children (who will soon enough become teens), helping prepare us in advance. This book will give you the willpower and a reason to begin tackling your "problems," as well as the power to be patient. Our teens are always smart. Don't forget that, in this period, they are the only smart beings in the house-at least that's what they think. They have answers to everything, and lots of words, power and energy. Parents usually fall silent, powerless, because we struggle to find the right words in the heat of the moment. This book is a genuine warehouse of pacifying "ammunition" in the form of words and ways how to use these words in a non-conflictive, but assertive, manner. This book may be used in several ways. When writing, we were guided by the principle that parents should be able to use this book in practice. It provides you with two options of reading: 1. You can start at the beginning, and follow the step-by-step path to self growth. 2. The book is divided into sections, so you can easily find and resolve the problem at hand. Our focus in the book is on the awareness of your role as parents. When thinking about changes, they should be oriented towards the notion of how we could change ourselves as parents, not how we stay the same and force our children to change.
