Adolescence marks a special and unique stage in human growth and
development, but it can be an extremely challenging time for both
parents and teenagers. In "The Parents' and Educators' Manual of
Teenage "Rebirth,"" author Bruce G. Bentley provides an
understanding of how teenagers think, feel, and experience
themselves in relation to others and the world with the goal of
assisting them in their battle to master adolescence.
To help those caring for teens gain a greater understanding of
child and adolescent psychology, Bentley applies principles of
those disciplines, along with psychologically pertinent literature,
to real-life stories of puberty, bullying, aggressive behavior,
abuse, and suicide. This manual provides parents and educators with
effective tools to understand, inform, challenge, and guide teens
through adolescence so they can develop an independent and
strengthened adulthood. It also offers teens a descriptive road map
of what they can expect and what they can do to help ease anxieties
and fears as they encounter life's uncertainties; it helps them to
be better prepared for the changes or "rebirths" into new realms of
relationships and responsibilities.
"The Parents' and Educators' Manual of Teenage "Rebirth"" aims
to ease the journey through the dark, mysterious, and wonderful
world of adolescence with its joys and struggles and beyond.
