Description: Your teen may think he or she is almost an adult who doesn t need your advice. Not!! You as a parent still have much influence over your kids during this last stage of childhood. In Like, Whatever, 15 experts who are also parents help you navigate through these challenging parenting waters, offering savvy and practical tips on a wide range of current teen-related issues: Money, sex, risky behaviors, health, athletics, faith, discipline, single and blended families, travel, games, generosity of spirit, and others. Each chapter features personal stories, interviews with experts, the latest research, and useful resources to help make these years more understandable, more bearable, and (gulp!) more fun for you as a parent.
