As a parent, you want practical, accurate and user friendly
information to help raise your teen. You want to know what's
considered normal adolescent behaviour, how to determine whether
your child is on a good path, how to encourage your teen's healthy
development, and how to get help when problems arise. What Parents
Need to Know about Teens is an easy-to-read booklet that addresses
these issues. Author David A. Wolfe is a clinical psychologist who
has worked with children and teens for more than 25 years. He holds
the RBC Chair in Children's Mental Health at the Centre for
Addiction and Mental Health. In his work, Dr. Wolfe has often
encountered parents who describe feeling overwhelmed with the
problems their teenage children bring home, especially when some of
these difficulties didn't exist when they were growing up
themselves. This booklet is a response to parents' concerns.
Written in chatty, down-to-earth language, What Parents Need to
Know about Teens addresses the facts and myths of teen life and
teens' relationships with parents. The booklet focuses on
strategies to help parents prepare teens for new responsibilities
and the pressures that may accompany them. Each section of the
booklet is devoted to a different parenting strategy: 1. Be an
effective parent: Balance sensitivity and firmness. 2. Place an
emphasis on safety, responsibility and obeying rules. 3.
Teach-don't just criticize. 4. Understand your teen's
development-and how it affects your relationship. 5. Understand the
pressures-and the risks-your teen faces.
