Confident Teens, Calm Parents

This book, the first in the series, “A Fresh Approach to Parenting” deals with a concept of two ways of life, namely the ‘Productive Way of Life’ and the ‘Problematic Way of Life’.

Your teenagers have limited experience of life. To gain information about life, they need your influence, input, encouragement, and the personal contribution which only you, their parents can give them.

You, the parents already have a degree of knowledge and experience. By using your expertise, together with the additional ideas, concepts, and information contained in this book, parenthood can be fun.

The ultimate role of parents is to equip and prepare their children to become well-balanced, enthusiastic, controlled, and sensible adults.

Your children and teenagers need to be directed and guided by you, before a crisis or unpleasant challenge arises. The tools and skills in this book will help you to achieve this. Children who know how to control and manage their emotions, thoughts, and beliefs will be better able to evaluate and analyse their choices and actions.

Inspired Teens

This book will offer you a number of processes whereby you will find answers to your questions and those of your children and teenagers.

You will discover ways to open discussions and start talking to each other and avoid shouting at each other. This book will make it easier for you, the parents to better understand your children’s and teenagers’ emotions, thoughts, beliefs and questionable expectations and assumptions.

Have you ever thought that a series of books could be an additional investment in your children’s and teenagers’ future? Could some books really change your family’s life around? But you have read so many books on parenting!

Which book should you read, with thousands all waiting to grab your attention and declaring: ‘buy me’?

Imagine walking on the sea-shore where tiny little turtles are trying to waddle into the safety of the ocean. You see the birds swooping down and grabbing them. Which one would you choose to save, and place safely in the ocean?

You have two choices. Leave my book, and lose the opportunity to discover this fresh approach to parenting or buy it and bring new inspiration to your family. I am sincerely enjoying writing this series. Please join me, by reading this book and investigating these self-motivating and thought-provoking concepts, facts and solutions.
