Description

Understanding 12-14-Year-Olds by Margot Waddell offers practical advice to parents navigating the challenges of their child's turbulent teenage years. This book provides guidance on managing conflict, dealing with issues like bullying and smoking, and supporting children as they develop their own identity. As children alternate between maturity and immaturity, parents must balance offering support while accepting their child's need for privacy. The author shares insights into the impact of school life, group pressures, and close friendships on 12-14-year-olds' development. By sharing in their enthusiasm and ambitions, parents can foster a positive relationship with their child during this critical time. This book provides sensitive and practical advice to help parents communicate effectively with their child and be prepared to question their assumptions about parenting.
