Raising Responsible Teenagers

The healthy emotional growth of a teenager is linked to discipline methods appropriate to their growing maturity and need to cooperate with others, without resorting to manipulation or abuse.

Raising Responsible Teenagers provides parents with an understanding of child development and adolescence, combined with practical advice on parenting styles and discipline techniques. This book helps parents to strengthen their teenager's self-worth and sense of adequacy.

Author Bob Myers discusses how parents can move teenagers away from a negative spiral of behaviour towards more responsible behaviour, and looks at how to handle difficult teenage behaviours.
