As the mother of two teenagers, I found this book to be invaluable. In fact, I wish I had it a few years ago when they were tweens. I think I've done a pretty good job, but I always worry. My daughter has her drama moments with her friends and although I let her know I'm here if she needs to talk or advice, I kind of let her do her thing. I know theres' nothing worse then getting in someone's space - I hate it, I'm sure they hate it.
My son, on the other hand, is almost eighteen and he's trying his wings. It's so hard from a parent's perspective to wonder, "Did I do enough?" "Did I miss something vital?" With Tough Guys and Drama Queens, there are things we shouldn't allow our kids to do and why, and things we should let them do, and why. With social media like it is today, as well as all of the other technology, things are way different now with teens then it was years ago, when I was a teen. Heck, we didn't even have computers then, let alone the internet.
An invaluable resource for all parents! Appearance, performance, authority, respect and boundaries, as well as other proactive tools to help you prepare for those tough teen years! A really great how-to book that includes biblical techniques for you as a guide for those rough times. Well Recommended!
