Description

If you’re a parent blindsided by the struggles of raising a teenager, Dr. Jon K. Amundson encourages you to turn your focus inward. Amundson’s Teen Whispering: A Way for Parents to “Get through It” will inspire you to grow and develop your best self to meet the harrowing challenge of surviving your child’s adolescent years.

Drawing on his own experience of thirty-five years as a clinical and consulting psychologist, Amundson helps parents master the state of mind most effective for managing conflict with their teens. In plainspoken, to-the-point instructions and in response to a challenge to write the shortest, quickest guide to teens possible, Amundson hits on a variety of topics:

– Successive approximations and “nudging”

– Effective dialogue

– Letting the teen do the work

Teen Whisperingis for parents who are either already frustrated by failing with their teenagers or who are preparing themselves for the hailstorm to come. This book is also a great resource for professionals who work with parents and children.

With the right state of mind, parents can coast through these notorious, demanding years without seeing gray hairs.
