Have a parenting issue? Give EAR to it . . .
Are you a parent of a teenager and feeling overwhelmed? Take a deep breath and remind yourself that you’ve got this. Parenting teenagers can be challenging for parents, especially in today’s fast-paced world.
The idea is not to blame anyone‘a parenting but to empower parents in a way that they can make effective choices for healthy parenting. Changing parenting practices is a decision. It can be a skill based approach towards healthy parenting.
This book is about courage. Courage to change. Courage to empower own self as a parent as well as the teens. The questions in the book are designed to facilitate self awareness. For growth to happen, clearing out the debris of repressed emotions and feelings is essential. So, with this growth mindset, I request parents of teens to approach this helpful resource to enhance their own emotional ability and skills. The idea of the book is not to interrogate parents or make them feel “bad”. The idea is simply to unearth own capacity for healthy choices for healthy parenting of teens.
Parenting a teenager can be tough, but it’s not Mission Impossible! With patience, empathy, and understanding, you can build a strong and healthy relationship with your kid. Make them feel heard, validate their feelings, involve them in decisions, and voila! You have unlocked parenting 101.
