The author of Wonderful Ways to Be a Family shares sixty practical
ways to build a loving bond between you and your teenager. While there
are a lot of highs to parenting, there are plenty of challenges,
particularly when it comes to teens. While we were all teenagers once,
we often can’t understand what our own teens are going through. But
there are certain habits you can pick up that can make the teen years
easier for both you and your child. Just because your relationship
with your teen looks different doesn’t mean it’s any less
meaningful. The shifts that come may seem unwelcome at first, but as
you learn to adapt and respond in a way that connects with your teen
rather than pushes them further away, the changes are easier to work
through. Recognizing that you’re growing and learning as you go,
it’s important to understand boundaries with teens, and give them
the space to do their own growing. Author and licensed clinical social
worker Judy Ford offers honest and valuable advice to parents who feel
depleted and desolate when it comes to their relationship with their
teen. With gentle wisdom and a healthy dose of good humor, Ford guides
parents and teenagers through one of the most difficult times in
parenting. Learn how to shift the focus from the hardships and the
mishaps to the joys and heartfelt moments. Read this book by
bestselling author and mother Judy Ford and discover . . .
