When Worry Works - How to Harness Your Parenting Stress and Guide Your Teen to Success (Hardcover): Dana Dorfman When Worry Works - How to Harness Your Parenting Stress and Guide Your Teen to Success (Hardcover)

Helps parents manage the stresses of adolescent achievement culture and to make decisions which align with their values, rather than their anxiety. WHEN WORRY WORKS responds to one of the primary sources of the nation's worsening adolescent mental health crisis - achievement pressure. Burdened by the mounting pressures on today's youth, parents seek ways to strike the balance between supporting their teens' current well-being while also setting them up for future success. Eager to take action and to manage their escalating fears, parents inadvertently and unknowingly exacerbate the problem by overlooking their own parental achievement anxiety. Based on thirty years of clinical practice and her experiences raising her own teenagers in New York City, the work demonstrates that when parents become aware of their individual anxieties and learn to effectively manage them, they are empowered to make values aligned, rather than worry driven parenting decisions. Dr. Dorfman provides practical evidence-based parenting strategies, exercises, and reflective prompts to guide parents through a process to constructively apply to their day-to-day parenting decisions.

In this fast-changing world how do we, as parents and caregivers, keep on the same page as our teens? The challenges and experiences they face can seem a million miles away from our own adolescence. It can feel overwhelming and hard to keep the communication channels open. At the same time, it's vital that we have the tools to talk openly and confidently with our teens. The Kids Will Be All Right provides up-to-date, evidence-based information, insights, conversation starters and resources to help you navigate and untangle hot topics such as friendships and frenemies; bullying; cyber safety; drinking, vaping and risk-taking behaviour; self-esteem and body image; sexuality; consent and safe relationships; and pornography. Co-written by Robyn - a nurse and educator who provides education programmes throughout schools and communities in New Zealand on health and wellbeing, including body image, cyber safety, sexuality, puberty and respectful relationships - and her daughter Molly, who weaves her perspective throughout, The Kids Will Be All Right is an insightful, accessible and empathetic guide that empowers parents and caregivers to relate to and communicate effectively with their teen.

For Parents and Teenagers - Dissolving the Barrier Between You and Your Teen (Paperback, Quill ed.): William Glasser For Parents and Teenagers - Dissolving the Barrier Between You and Your Teen (Paperback, Quill ed.)

Dr. William Glasser -- a world-renowned psychiatrist who has healed shattered families and changed lives with his advice -- urges parents and teachers to reject the "common sense" that tells them to "lay down the law" by grounding teens, or to try to coerce teens into changing their behavior. These strategies have never worked, asserts Dr. Glasser, and never will.

Instead he offers a different approach, one based upon Choice Theory. Dr. Glasser spells out the seven deadly habits parents practice, and then shows them how to accomplish goals by changing their own behavior. Most important, however, is the groundbreaking method that all parents and teachers can use with confidence to maintain strong and loving relationships with today's teenagers.

...a message to the Black Youth.

This is a compilation of individual essays written during the summer-fall of 1992. The essays are designed to inspire thought within the Black Mind. These writings are primarily targeted toward the Black Youth of this day, of which I am a part of. I am not a "Master" of these teachings, but these teachings I wish to "Master."

"They" say that my generation is not intelligent enough to read a book. I say that "They" are wrong. It is just that "They" are not writing about anything of interest that is relevant to our lives!

And when "They" do write something, they have to write in the perfect "King's English" to impress their Harvard Professors! Here we are with a book in one hand, and a dictionary in the other, trying to understand what in the hell the author is talking about!

If you have got something to say, just say it! We are not impressed by your 27-letter words, or your Shakespearian style of writing. The Black Youth of today don't give a damn about Shakespeare!!! This ain't no damn poetry contest! Wear are dealing with the life, blood, and salvation of our entire Black Nation!

If you want to reach the People, you have to embrace us where we are, and then take us where we need to go. So, these writings are from my generation and for my generation with respect and love.

If no one will teach, love and guide us, then we will teach love and guide ourselves.

Peace.

"Nerds. You know, Mitch Mathews, Steve Daily, and Collin Fellers? Smart, glasses wearing, shirt tucked in dorks?" Erin said.
"Collin doesn't wear glasses," Reba whispered. Did Collin really get teased a lot? Not that she cared of course. But she couldn't help feeling like she should do something about it.
"Duh! Don't you see him wearing those ugly thick glasses whenever he reads?" Erin pointed out.
"Oh, I guess not," Reba shrugged.
"Ya, and Cole is sticking up for them? How weird is that?" Erin asked.
"Very," Reba answered.
"Okay, bye!" Erin said, giving Reba a quick hug and then skipping away.
Reba looked around her at the deserted school grounds and began to slowly walk home.

Parenting by example. Using the simple, powerful message that turned "Children Learn What They Live" into an international bestseller with over 1.5 million copies in print, Drs. Dorothy Law Nolte and Rachel Harris bring their unique perspective to families with adolescents.

Structured, like the first book, around an inspirational poem, "Teenagers Learn What They Live" addresses the turbulent teenage years, when a stew of hormones, pressures, and temptations makes for such extreme challenges for parents and children. "Teenagers" addresses popularity and peer pressure ("If teenagers live with rejection, they learn to feel lost"); the responsibilities of maturity ("If teenagers live with too many rules, they learn how to get around them./ If teenagers live with too few rules, they learn to ignore the needs of others"); body image and the allure of cigarettes, drugs, and alcohol ("If teenagers live with healthy habits, they learn to be kind to their bodies"). Central to the book are ways for parents to communicate with their teenage children-including how to deal with being "tuned out" and when to start the conversation again-and how to strike the right balance between holding on and accepting a teen's growing independence. Hundreds of examples of parent-child interactions cover everything from the all-night graduation party to problems of sexual identity, providing great guidance as well as effective conversation starters.
