About this listen
You are a step away from learning how best to parent your teenage boy without resorting to yelling, intimidation, manipulation, or threatening!
When he was younger, he would always tell you how he loved you, told you almost everything and you never really had any secrets.
Now that he is a teenager, he barely talks and only gives you one-word answers for whatever you ask him. He has even told you several times that he hates you and when you want to have a conversation with him, he just bangs the door in your face or sometimes he makes the effort but only listens to you without saying much.
Does this sound familiar?
If it does, do not despair because this is quite common among teenagers. Right now, so many changes are taking place in your son’s body and it can even feel overwhelming for him; they just don’t understand what to make of everything. They also want to develop a sense of independence and so they don’t want to feel so attached to you; hence, the need to make their decisions. They also desire a sense of belonging; thus, they can be easily influenced by peer pressure.
So what can you do?
How best can you parent your teenage son?
How do you ensure that you son is not lost to addictions and other behaviors common among teenagers?
This book will show you the ins and outs of just how to go about the murky waters of raising a teenage son.
Here is a preview of what you will learn:
- What goes on in a teenager’s brain so that you understand that his behavior is not about you being a bad parent
- The changes that your son may be going through and how to effectively address that How to effectively communicate and connect with your son
- Steps to take to get your son to talk and open up, mistakes to avoid when parenting your son
- How best to establish your son’s rights, privileges, and responsibilities
- How to provide security and a safe place as a parent, and so much more...

Love is important, but it is respect that is the key to your son's heart. The idea of moms respecting their sons may sound alien to some, but it seems to ignite curiosity across the board. It is easy to relate to the need for all of us to feel a mother's love, but is that the same thing as respect? Even for young boys, the effect of respect is nothing short of astounding when applied properly.

While there are no bad kids, more often than not, there are also no bad parents. Where parents tend to go wrong lies in their discipline methods. Poor behavior from kids can drive any parent crazy, but reacting based on emotions can be the worst foundation for discipline. So why not try a different approach?

As pediatrician and mother of two teenagers Cara Natterson explains, puberty starts in boys long before any visible signs appear, and that causes confusion about their changing temperaments for boys and parents alike. Often, they also grow quieter as they grow taller, which leads to less parent-child communication. But, as Natterson warns in Decoding Boys, we respect their increasing "need" for privacy, monosyllabic conversations, and alone time at their peril.

Parents, educators, and the media wring their hands about the plight of America's children and teens - soaring rates of emotional problems, limited coping skills, disengagement from learning - and yet there are ways to reverse these disheartening trends. Teach Your Children Well acknowledges that every parent wants successful children. However, until we are clearer about our core values and the parenting choices that are most likely to lead to authentic, and not superficial, success, we will continue to raise exhausted, externally driven, impaired children.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 70
Parents, educators, and the media wring their hands about the plight of America's children and teens - soaring rates of emotional problems, limited coping skills, disengagement from learning - and yet there are ways to reverse these disheartening trends. Teach Your Children Well acknowledges that every parent wants successful children. However, until we are clearer about our core values and the parenting choices that are most likely to lead to authentic, and not superficial, success, we will continue to raise exhausted, externally driven, impaired children.
