Showing titles in Teenagers

Mindfulness and meditation are hot topics these days, and it’s not hard to see why. These techniques can be used to relax, calm anxiety, and increase awareness and focus. But all too often, books about them ignore the people who could use their help the most. Today’s teens and pre-teens are more stressed than any other generation, pulled in a thousand different directions by schoolwork and their personal lives.

Experts and the general public are convinced that young people today are trapped in an extended adolescence - coddled, unaccountable, and more reluctant to take on adult responsibilities than previous generations. Nancy Hill and Alexis Redding argue that what is perceived as stalled development is in fact typical. Those reprimanding today's youth have forgotten that they once balked at the transition to adulthood themselves.

By the time you are done listening to this audiobook, desire for an active relationship with the teenager in your life can stretch beyond the one hug a year you get from your teen at Christmas time after they receive their presents.

No, but They Text, Snap, & Tik Tok, she wants to help you achieve what to say and what not to say so your teen will talk more; what to do so you spend more and more good times with your teen; and how to talk less and listen more so you are a major difference in your teen’s life.

Il venticinque per cento delle gravidanze termina con un aborto spontaneo. Una donna su quattro, insomma. Non si tratta quindi di un caso isolato, ma di milioni di donne che si trovano di fronte a quello che ad oggi resta uno dei più grandi tabù. Questo stesso tabù si colloca all’interno di una categoria più ampia che è quella degli argomenti inavvicinabili legati al mondo femminile.

Von wegen Stress und Chaos - wie Sie und Ihr Kind die schwierige und spannende Phase der Veränderung völlig unbeschwert und harmonisch überstehen.

Die Pubertät stellt viele Familien auf eine harte Probe. Es scheint fast so, als würde der Nachwuchs von einem Moment auf den anderen die gesamte Struktur auf den Kopf stellen. Seine Laune wechselt wie das Wetter im April und von überglücklich bis zu Tode betrübt ist an einem normalen Tag wirklich alles mal drin. Die einst so geliebten, gemeinsamen Familienaktivitäten sind nun öde und spießig.

Why are today’s parents feeling like failures, worried that their teens will ‘go off the rails’, won’t get through school, won’t find a job or will be overwhelmed by stress? With so many experts out there offering conflicting advice, how do parents know where to turn and who to trust? As both clinicians and parents, Dr Ginni Mansberg and clinical psychologist Jo Lamble know first-hand how challenging it can be to raise adolescents. In The New Teen Age, they team up to address both the physical and psychological issues faced by teens in this new age.

Your personal identity describes who you are, who you aspire to be, or who people perceive you to be.

Stolen Identity is a story about a young man's battle with a dysfunctional family, a faulty criminal justice system, and oppressive society to distinguish who he really is from who they have labeled him as and virtually created him to be.

So kommen Familien gut durch die Pubertät - Wenn Kinder in die Pubertät kommen und sich immer deutlicher abgrenzen, gibt es in Familien oft Diskussionen, Rückzug, Wut und Streit. Häufig liegt die Ursache nicht im Verhalten der Kinder, sondern in dem der Eltern. Denn wenn Eltern sich nicht über ihre Werte und Wünsche im Klaren sind und nicht gut für sich selbst sorgen, können sie ihrem Nachwuchs keine Orientierung geben.

In today's über popular social media age, it's socially accepted to gauge self-esteem by a follower count and how many likes one has. It's even more painfully glorified to pop out a child as a young mother and have epic "snapback" photos and videos of the cutest, most well-behaved child, all while putting food on the table and becoming Insta-famous. This memoir is not that. It recounts the consequences of a raunchy night under a Little Tikes playset where a 15½-year-old straight-A student gives up her virginity and gets Pregnorant.

I take very little exception to the plethora of advice columns, TV advice psychologists, and theoretical books on this topic. What I do take exception to are those who quote and promote the latest polls, studies, and psychological findings as the bible on child-rearing. For too many years, parents have followed some of these self-proclaimed gurus and, as a result, have robbed our children of the qualities of taking responsibility and the honor of honesty and hard work.

Bragging rights and bumper stickers are some of the social forces fueling today’s parenting behavior, and, as a result, even well-intentioned parents are behaving badly. Many parents don’t know how best to support their teens, especially when everyone around them seems to be frantically tutoring, managing, and helicoptering.
