AS the mother of twin teen boys, I struggle just to keep up with them let alone think about what's going on inside their hearts, minds. I have long been an admirer of Mimi Doe as an author and this book is going to be the book that will carry my boys through their teenage years...There is a warm, compassionate feel here that reassures me...with all the insanity going on during these years this book gives me ways to keep connected...

Just got this book the other day and already I feel more relaxed and hopeful about raising up these teenagers of mine (I have 2). The writing isn't judgemental or preachy and seems to be without religious overtones. I will go back and use it again I'm sure because I'm reading it with my highlight pen. The best part, so far, for me are the author's real stories and the Parents Check in Questions. The stories show me there are other parents like me...with teens who make mistakes. The questions really get me thinking about what I can do to make things better.

If you have teenagers in your house, or will someday, buy this book for them and youself. Somehow Mimi Doe has managed to combine practical advice on how to cope with the challenges of raising adolescents with this amazing understanding about how to connect with them on another level. I have three teenagers, two boys and a girl, and lots of typical ups and downs raising them. This book will help. Already has. Buy it!
