How much independence should parents allow teenagers who claim
rights and privileges, show excessive confidence and test the
boundaries of discipline? How can parents handle the physical and
emotional changes in their adolescent child? This book offers
helpful advice to parents whose children have reached the turbulent
teenage years. From conflict management to issues of bullying,
stealing and smoking, it guides parents as their children alternate
between maturity and immaturity and develop their own identity. It
explains the impact of school life, group pressures and close
friendships on 12-14-year-olds' development and helps parents to
offer their child support, while accepting his or her increased
need for privacy. Alongside these challenges, the author reveals
the rewards of sharing in these young people's enthusiasm and
ambitions, as they grow more confident and responsible. This book
provides practical and sensitive advice for parents to help them
relate to and communicate with their child at a difficult time of
transition, while being prepared to question what they thought they
already knew about their son or daughter - and about parenting.
