Parenting Teens and Young Adults

The transition from the protected security of childhood to the independent responsibilities of adult life can be treacherous for many young people, in our very complex modern world. As parents, we know how our child’s life story can go, both good and bad and we need to utilize every skill we have to help them to become the hero of their life story, rather than the tragic victim of bad choices.

Parenting Teens and Young Adults…Preparing for Independence is a Real Life Collection of our newspaper columns organized and sequenced in a manner to be most understandable. In this book you will find many stories about parents, including ourselves, striving to help their children become responsible, happy adults. From our family to yours we hope this Real Life Collection is informative, encouraging, and sometimes entertaining.
