Surviving Your Adolescents

Communicate, connect and guide your teen to adulthood. Learn how to manage and let go of your 13- to 18-year-old.

Learn the language of talking to teens and how to establish expectations, stay in touch—and take care of yourself.

Living with teenagers is no picnic.
You’ll find you must bite your tongue at times as your teens push toward independence. Or—if you sense there is trouble—times when you must take charge. This program gives you a step-by-step approach to help end the  hassles and offer concrete solutions.

From rule breaking to risk taking to defensive communication and disrespect, parenting a teenager can feel like modern warfare.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Surviving Your Adolescents covers:

  • How to recognize normal adolescent behavior
  • How to manage risk-taking teens
  • Exactly which problems require professional attention
  • Which problems require you to let go
  • The four cardinal sins—what not to do
  • The relationship between parent/teen communication and adolescent safety
  • Five ways to improve your relationship
  • Which role to take: observer, adviser, negotiator, director

 

Clients who complete this class receive a $20 gas card and the book 1-2-3 Magic Teen by Thomas W. Phelan, Ph.D.
