The first chapter is titled "A Stranger in the House," and it gives an overview of a parent's role in navigating the teen years. Following chapters deal with such things as anger, self-control, love, discipline, values, and anxiety and depression.
Interspersed throughout each chapter are key points in large print that draw your eye to read them. Three of my favorites are:
- Parenting and 'peaceful coexistence' don't go together."
- When you listen to what God says about you and reinforce it through self-talk, you provide your own encouragement to be strong."
- A teenager is like a mirror; she reflects what she is given."
