Raising a teen is a tricky part of the parenting journey but the teenage years do not need to be terrifying. Multiple studies have found distracted parenting, and low levels of parental warmth and support contribute to behavioural problems, insecurity, and emotional difficulties in adolescents.

  • How to avoid the most common mistakes 99 percent of teen parents fall into when parenting their teen
  • The secrets to ensuring you and your teen deal with conflict effortlessly and without damage to your relationship
  • How to make sure your teen talks transparently with you and listens actively
  • Why your teenager will learn to value you and your family members even if they do not normally spend much time with you
  • How to use natural and controlled consequences, so that your teen learns to own their problems and solutions
  • Why parent-teen conflict can actually have benefits and how to deal with conflict when it happens
  • Why your adolescent will not only benefit from the 7 strategies you put into place but also appreciate you more in life
  • And much more...

Scientific evidence looking at teenagers shows that even implementing a few basic ideas and strategies can help to resolve even the most difficult issues between you and your teenager.

An insightful and easy read, this book really encapsulated some of the real-life difficulties of parenting teens. I loved how relatable it was and I felt really understood. The research conducted on parents and the stories provided in the book added a nice touch and it made me feel as though I wasn't alone in the difficulties faced with raising teens. There were also great suggestions of how to improve the relationship with your teen, which I am keen to try out and refer back to when I need!

I am not a parent but a teacher of teens in high school and found this book to be just what I needed. This book helped me assess conflicts better and build relationships with students. I have had meetings with parents and recommended this book to them! There are lots of strategies and tools that both parents and teachers alike can use to forge stronger relationships and improve communication with teens. Some really great ideas.

A great listen!

As a parent of a teen I always wonder if my 14 year old daughter is happy and content with life. It can be hard to get her to open up about some things so I was glad when I was recommended this audio book. Learning how to manage conflict when we have a disagreement has helped us get past these events quickly and smoothly without having any major fall outs. The little changes I've introduced so far have definitely had a positive impact on our relationship. Loved the style of this book and how the information was presented. I would 100% recommend this book to other parents.

Great resource for parents of teens.

This was an excellent book to listen to and the authors seem very well researched and experienced.

The book is jam-packed with strategies and tips for effective parenting and I feel a far more confident parent in dealing with a range of issues teens present.

The book covers, teen development, common everyday issues, self-reflection, dealing with problems, handling consequences, building relationships and much much more.

I highly recommend this book to anyone with teens and kids in general as you will learn a lot, have better relationships and improve your parenting styles. It is great for teachers, guardians and anyone else handling teens too.

I will continue to use this book as a guide to help me through my kid’s journey to adult life.

Brilliantly informative and very helpful!

The audiobook is practical, easy to follow, and it provides helpful information to help carers of teens as they do behave radically sometimes, because they interact and act base on their feelings rather than logic. The book explains a bit of how to practically parent teens better by reflecting on how we had it, but times have changed with technological advancement which is one of the major issues with teens. The chapter on what to do when parents disagree which affects teens was informative and it provides strategies to communicate with teens using appropriate language. Chapter 5 on difficult conversation with teens and negotiating with teen with different strategies was also insightful.

Candid and Informative!

Being a lecturer, I deal with teenagers on a daily basis. I'm very interested in how todays teenagers see the modern world and how to communicate with them to forge better relationships. The audiobook starts by questions parenting styles and self reflection. It then goes onto day to day struggles and logical and effective ways to deal with conflict with your teenagers. I really love the emphasis on family values and coming together to build stronger relationships with each other. The methods given are very powerful and I can see myself using some of these, particularly from chapter 6 when deal with conflicts. I really think parents will benefit from this!

Really informative for today's modern world

As I enter this next chapter in my parenting journey, I appreciated the research, insights, and advice in this book. It is a fantastic way to ensure that you don't find yourself saying the same unhelpful remarks as your parents did! I especially appreciated the list of the most annoying things that parents do so that I can ensure that I continue working on not doing these things with my teens. The hardest part for me is to lecture less and listen more. This book is highly recommended.

A thorough guide well worth listening to

This book was very well researched and presented. The focus on communication skills and linked those to parenting styles and teenager personalities was very helpful. We really appreciated the surveys of teenagers on what annoyed them, their preferences for parenting styles, and why they reacted to be eye-opening. Anyone looking to adjust their parenting style, or figure out how to resolve disagreements between parenting styles should listen to this book.

Highly recommended
