Communicating With Teens

The central focus of this book is to help you navigate the teen years in one certain area: your communication with your teen. It seems like this is one area that breaks down as kids pass from late childhood into adolescence. This doesn’t necessarily have to be. I know many families for which it is not true at all. But how do you do it? How can you deepen and strengthen the communication between you and your teen? Are you destined for a strained, maybe even destructive relationship, like so many we see between teens and parents these days? I say no! You can have a close, intimate relationship with your teen, a relationship based on mutual love and respect. It’s not easy, and it will take work from both you and your teen. But it is possible. This book is designed as a way to help you and your teen develop the ability to communicate with each other.
