Overwhelmed by my parenting role, I also downloaded this book: 'Parenting Teenage Boys: An Effective Parenting Guide for Raising Teen Boys' from the same author Elizabeth Roxas. Her other book 'Parenting Boys' is pretty much the same with this book. But this Parenting teenage boys book discussed an even deeper insights on how to parent an adult child. A toddler's needs differ from that of a teenager's. Reading these two books, I can truly see how much they will change over the years, and because of that it increased my expectations on my son's growth and development. Observing teenagers nowadays, I can see that they're more difficult to handle especially when it comes to expressing their emotions and feelings. Chapter 3 in this book teaches how parents can help their grownup teenagers manage their emotions, encourage talking and being able to listen to their sentiments and concerns. This book is not only insightful but shows deep sense of parenting skills and styles.
