Teen Age Boys

He was the friendly, baby-faced Canadian boy next door. He came from a loving, caring, and well-respected family. Blessed with good looks and back-woods charm, he was popular with his peers and he excelled in sports. A self-proclaimed "die hard" Calgary Flames fan, he played competitive junior hockey and competed on his high school's snowboarding team. And he enjoyed the typical pleasures of a boy growing up in the country: camping, hunting, and fishing with family and friends.

When he was younger, he would always tell you how he loved you, told you almost everything and you never really had any secrets. Now that he is a teenager, he barely talks and only gives you one-word answers for whatever you ask him. He has even told you several times that he hates you and when you want to have a conversation with him, he just bangs the door in your face or sometimes he makes the effort but only listens to you without saying much. Does this sound familiar? This book will show you the ins and outs of just how to go about the murky waters of raising a teenage son.

As a parent or guardian of a teenaged boy, you understand the unique challenges that you have to overcome - your son’s lack of communication and poor listening skills, the mood swings, lack of discipline and, maybe, even some personal hygiene issues. But the same precious and loving son is still in that overgrown, clumsy body. You just must learn to understand that most of what you are dealing with is a normal part of going through puberty and maturing.

When 17-year-old Rune Kristiansen returns from his native Norway to the sleepy town of Blossom Grove, Georgia, where he befriended Poppy Litchfield as a child, he has just one thing on his mind: Why had the girl who was one half of his soul, who promised to wait faithfully for his return, cut him off without a word of explanation?

This book isn't just some dry set of instructions on dealing with the mental health "problemas" we all go through. No way. It's like that cool, understanding friend who's always there for you, ready to help you kick your fears to the curb and cruise through your teen years with confidence and a smile on your face.
