We have a tendency today to over-parent, micro-manage, and
under-appreciate our adolescents. Dr. John Duffy's "The Available
Parent" is a revolutionary approach to taking care of teens and
tweens. Teenagers are often left feeling unheard and misunderstood,
and parents are left feeling bewildered by the changes in their
child at adolescence and their sudden lack of effectiveness as
parents. The parent has become unavailable, the teen responds in
kind, and a negative, often destructive cycle of communication
begins. The available parent of a teenager is open to discussion,
offering advice and solutions, but not insisting on them. He allows
his child to make some mistakes, setting limits, primarily where
health and safety are concerned. He never lectures -- he is
available but not controlling. He is neither cruel nor dismissive,
ever. The available parent is fun and funny, and can bring levity
to the most stressful situation. All of that is to say, there are
no conditions to his availability -- it is absolute.
