THE KEY TO PARENTING ADOLESCENTS IS NOT USING THE RIGHT FORMULAS, BUT ACHIEVING THE RIGHT FOCUS.
There's more to parenting adolescents than laying down God-honoring rules, trying to enforce them fairly, and doing your best to keep the lines of communication open.
The task of shaping a young person's life is a very personal and painstaking one. It goes beyond what you say or do to draw upon who you are inside: how well you deal with the things he or she is facing; how closely you rely on God to strengthen, protect, and guide you each day. That's why learning how to become a better parent is impossible without first considering who you are as a person.
In Parenting Adolescents, Kevin Huggins examines the many ties between rearing mature, Christlike kids, and developing maturity, wisdom, and Christlikeness in your own life. Rather than offering a series of formulas designed to generate better behavior in your kids, he shows how the normal ups and downs of family life can be used to build true love and godly character in you and your teens at the same time.
"Few books will make you think more profitably about dealing with adolescents than this one. It's practical, biblical, clear, and challenging. I recommend it with unqualified excitement."-Dr. Larry Crabb
"I'm much better prepared to deal with my kids thanks to Kevin's excellent material. I heartily recommend it both for your sake as parents, and for the sake of your children."-Dr. Dan B. Allender
