So many useful insights!

This book provided a great new perspective for me on how parents can connect with their teenager and help them thrive. It covers all areas from school, to social media.

More than anything it helps understand their world and where they're coming from, making it easier to help and support them without forcing different generations' ideas on them.

Definitely worth a listen if your kid is at or approaching that age!

Perfect!

For parents and teens in our digital age. There is much empathy and practical wisdom here. Stevens addresses the challenges faced by both teens and their parents. The title says PERFECT TEENAGER, but I think this is the PERFECT BOOK for this topic.
One of the things I appreciated most is the author’s recognition of the stressors and anxieties among today's teenagers. There is the huge presence of social media and technology on adolescent development. To address this, the book has some concrete steps for parents so they can support their teens mental and emotional safety.
Of course, building trust and communication between parents and teens is the most important thing which is one of the book’s central themes.
This audio is a must for parents with teens – and teens with parents!

Perfect for parents and teens

As a generation Z, I read this book with my mum. She always struggled to grasp the point of social media and technology and the affect this has on young people so I knew this book would be beneficial to her. She thoroughly enjoyed it and obtained an improved understanding of the things most teens go through nowadays as a result of such distractions and this in turn has helped her to gain more sympathy so she can better support her children. Highly recommend!
