"If you are a parent--or have children in your life in any significant way and that you love--this book is required reading." --Michael Hainey, author of New York Times bestseller After Visiting Friends

A parenting wake-up call that could change how you raise your child.

Learn about the "New Teen" and how to adjust your parenting approach. "Teen parenting" strategies are now beginning years too late. Kids are growing up with nearly unlimited access to social media and the internet, and unprecedented academic, social, and familial stressors. Starting as early as eight years old, children are exposed to information, thought, and emotion that they are unprepared to process.

Unprecedented teen anxiety and depression. Because of the exposure they face, kids are emotionally overwhelmed at a young age and often are continuing to search for a sense of self well into their twenties.

Urgent advice for parents of teens. Dr. John Duffy's parenting book is a new and necessary guide that addresses the hidden phenomenon of the changing teenage brain. Dr. Duffy, a nationally recognized expert in parenting for nearly twenty-five years, offers this book as a guide for parents raising children who are growing up quickly and dealing with unresolved adolescent issues that can lead to anxiety and depression.
