Expert, authoritative guidance you can trust on helping your teenager cope with the changes and challenges of adolescence, from The American Academy of Pediatrics.

The critical, life-shaping years between twelve and twenty-one have been called the “turbulent teens.” But adolescence doesn’t have to be a time of anxiety and upheaval--for either teenagers or their parents.

Combining practical parenting advice with the latest medical, psychological, and scientific research, and covering every aspect of a teenager’s growth and development, the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Caring for Your Teenager offers indispensable information on:

• The stages of adolescence--what defines normal physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development
• Setting rules and limits--helping teenagers grow into responsible adults
• The twelve building blocks of self-esteem--from feelings of security and belonging to decision making, pride, and trust
• Instilling values and strengthening family ties
• The problem of peer pressure: giving your child the confidence to handle it
• Hormones--easing teenagers’ anxieties about their changing bodies
• Safeguarding your teenager from sexually transmitted diseases
• Adapting to different family types--from single-parent to adoptive to blended
• Helping your teenager cope with serious illness or death in the family, sibling rivalry, separation, or divorce

Plus
• Helping your teenager find the right college--or make an alternative choice
• Teens, the Internet, and the law
• A comprehensive medical guide to common ailments . . . and much more
